Introduction
This course provides learners with essential knowledge in power system modelling and control. Key topics include modelling of power networks, generating units, and loads, as well as power system stability and control techniques for improving system performance. Learners will explore advanced methods such as Flexible Alternating Current Transmission Systems (FACTS) and gain practical insights into real-world challenges in power system control. The course also introduces modern tools for system analysis and stability enhancement, making it ideal for learners interested in power engineering, energy systems, and those considering advanced research in the field.This course is credit-bearing (3 AU) and stackable to:
- Graduate Certificate in Power Engineering (9 AU)
- FlexiMasters in Power Engineering (15 AU)
- MSc in Power Engineering (30 AU)
This course is part of the FlexiMasters in Power Engineering.
