Overview
A large part of the power sector has already been digitalized. The more that generation shifts from centralized thermal systems to decentralized, renewable systems, the greater the potential for applying modern digital tools in system control. Digitalization is the key technology that makes it possible to organize decentralized networks and thus contribute to decarbonization while maintaining a high level of security of supply.
In this course, you will learn why digitalization is a key driver for building the sustainable power systems of the future and how it can contribute to decarbonization.
Check the Digitalisation and Smart Technologies for the Power Sector programme at Renewables Academy (RENAC) AG.
Programme Structure
The course focuses on:
- The energy economics background of digitalisation of the power sector
- Opportunities and risks of digitalisation for sustainability and decarbonisation
- Key technologies
- Smart generation, transmission and consumption
- Smart markets and process
Risks and cyber security
After completing this course, you should be able to:
- identify the areas of the power sector which are most affected by digitalisation;
- assess potential advantages for society, the economy and market participants arising from the digitalisation of the power sector;
- identify and explain the most important technologies which form the basis for the current digitalisation of the power sector;
- explain how these technologies can be applied in order to optimise generation, transmission, storage and consumption of electrical power;
- understand which aspects of digitalisation support decarbonisation and energy efficiency efforts, and which can put these objectives at risk;
