Credits: 6
Learning Outcome:Students have in-depth knowledge of different technologies for utilisation of renewable energies for power generation.
They can evaluate the different technologies with regard to their advantages and disadvantages for the operation of the electrical power grids.
The interdisciplinary connections between the operation of power grids and the operation of RE technologies are taught in depth and can be assessed by the students.
They are able to make well-founded judgements about energy supply concepts based on renewable energies.
