Qualification

This certificate 'Integration of Wind Power in the Electricity Supply System' is recommended to engineers who want to work for local or regional utilities, grid operators or consultant companies that deal with the planning and integration of wind farms and who want to specialize themselve in integration of wind energy. On the basis of wind power forecasting you learn how to optimize the scheduling of the conventional and renewable energies power stations mix. Another learning outcome is the planning of future electricity grids of power supply systems with a large amount of renewables.
