EBA_630 | Integrated System Planning and Capacity Expansion Plan Strategies --
In an integrated system planning approach, the generation and transmission and distribution planning tasks are combined. This is however more than performing one after the other. For each generation plan, the impact on the required transmission and distribution network topology is assessed. When the main goal is decarbonization, the optimal generation mix to achieve this goal may however lead to prohibitive grid investments costs. Hence, an iterative approach is to be adopted where a good trade-off over a set of KPI’s is found, for example between decarbonization and network reinforcement cost. It is important to understand that the set of target KPIs and their individual prioritization is different for every customer and project, and that a clear alignment on this needs to take place. more infoless info

EBA_630 | Integrated System Planning and Capacity Expansion Plan Strategies --
In an integrated system planning approach, the generation and transmission and distribution planning tasks are combined. This is however more than performing one after the other. For each generation plan, the impact on the required transmission and distribution network topology is assessed. When the main goal is decarbonization, the optimal generation mix to achieve this goal may however lead to prohibitive grid investments costs. Hence, an iterative approach is to be adopted where a good trade-off over a set of KPI’s is found, for example between decarbonization and network reinforcement cost. It is important to understand that the set of target KPIs and their individual prioritization is different for every customer and project, and that a clear alignment on this needs to take place. more infoless info

In the design process of a new radial feeder, once the configuration, conductors, and short-circuit levels have been identified, the protection schemes can then be coordinated to provide adequate protection for both people and equipment. This course will introduce students to the fundamentals of protection coordination, covering overcurrent feeder protection as well as substation protection topics such as bus protection. Upon completion, students will understand how to coordinate devices to achieve the main goal—clearing the fault closest to the source in the shortest time possible more infoless info

EBA_630 | Integrated System Planning and Capacity Expansion Plan Strategies --
In an integrated system planning approach, the generation and transmission and distribution planning tasks are combined. This is however more than performing one after the other. For each generation plan, the impact on the required transmission and distribution network topology is assessed. When the main goal is decarbonization, the optimal generation mix to achieve this goal may however lead to prohibitive grid investments costs. Hence, an iterative approach is to be adopted where a good trade-off over a set of KPI’s is found, for example between decarbonization and network reinforcement cost. It is important to understand that the set of target KPIs and their individual prioritization is different for every customer and project, and that a clear alignment on this needs to take place. more infoless info

EBA_670 | Congestion Management --
A power system is engineered to ensure sufficient capability to meet system demand, losses, and generation reserve while aiming to produce and supply energy at minimal cost and environmental impact. The price in the day-ahead market is established by aligning offers from generators with bids from users at each node, resulting in a classic supply-demand equilibrium price. This course introduces the concepts of day-ahead and real-time markets, offering insights into the regulation and deregulation of electric markets and their impact on the electricity value chain. more infoless info

EBA_745 | Energy Efficiency/ Decarbonization Roadmap --
Decarbonization and decentralization of power systems also need to be planned with a holistic economic approach and within a clearly defined regulatory framework. New revenue streams from energy management, electric vehicle charging infrastructure, energy-efficient solutions, etc., contribute to the decarbonization of energy systems and need to be integrated into the existing and future regulatory and economic framework. This course reviews a typical Energy Efficiency Reference Regulatory Architecture methodology to establish the baseline of the current regulatory regime, policy instruments, and execution measures. more infoless info

PSEC_720 | Economic Transmission Planning --
Today’s transmission system is challenged with renewable energy integration, competing interests of investors, consumers and environmental advocates, and the increasing role information technology plays in the delivery of electric energy. The growth in behind-the-meter solutions from demand response to on-site generation, and the emergence of alternative networks, such as microgrids, means that the transmission system’s reliability function has become more complex, and the economic evaluation of competing projects, less straightforward.
The primary objective of this course is to teach fundamental and advanced economic concepts as an integral component of transmission planning and project evaluation. Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to apply these concepts for short, intermediate and long-term planning studies and to judge the relative merits of competing transmission projects.
