Design an integrated energy system recognizing the role of intelligent use of various technologies including renewable energy sources, energy storage, electric vehicles, thermal systems, interconnected multi-carrier grids, and energy hubs.
What you'll learn
Analyze the synergies between different energy technologies, energy carriers and energy sectors according to their technical characteristics
Evaluate the flexibility, grid support and reduction in carbon footprint that can be obtained by transition to electric mobility and electrified heating
Assess the potential of intelligent use of energy technologies in an integrated fashion harnessing the potential of energy storage in a sustainable energy syst…
Model multi-carrier energy system using an appropriate model resolution
Design an integrated energy system considering renewable energy resources, energy storage, electric mobility, electricity, gas and thermal grids
Identify the types and characteristics of energy hubs, and evaluate how they enable local energy coordination, inclusivity, and grid congestion management
University courses you can audit for free, with lectures, readings and practice quizzes.
A verified certificate from the university if you pay for it.
From Delft University of Technology, a well-regarded name.
Self-paced: start any time.
Disadvantages
Graded assignments and the certificate need the paid track.
Audit access can expire a few weeks after the course ends.
Learning is free, but the certificate costs money.
Some parts (graded work, certificate) are paid.
Some points apply to every course of this kind; see how we rank.
Free to audit
Free: Choose "Audit this course" when you enrol: lectures, readings and practice are free.
Paid: Graded assignments and the verified certificate (Certificate $185). Audit access may end after the course closes.
Before you start
Basic knowledge of working principles of one or more energy technologies against which to apply the concepts of integration and intelligence. Resources are available to fill knowledge gaps.
Instructor: Dennis Freeman, Kendra Pugh This course provides an integrated introduction to electrical engineering and computer science, including modern software engineering, linear systems analysis, electronic circuits, and decision-making. The lecture videos provide an overview of each topic, whi…
Instructor: Russell Tedrake See the complete course at: http://ocw.mit.edu/6-832s09 Robots today move far too conservatively, using control systems that attempt to maintain full control authority at all times. Humans and animals move much more aggressively by routinely executing motions which invol…
