Objectives (course unit)
The goal is to provide students with a comprehensive understanding about the fundamentals of solar electricity (pv) and wind power. Student understands essential principles of operation in pv and wind power plants. In addition, student is aware of external factors affecting the operation. Student is able to carry out a preliminary design of pv and wind power plant based on the demands of power and energy. Student understands positive and negative effects of pv and wind power on the whole system of electrical energy. Students understand why the need of energy storage, flexible loads and smart grids is growing with the increase of distributed production.
