Prerequisite/Recommended prerequisite for
participation in the module
The module is based on knowledge achieved when studying the 2nd
semester on the Master of Science in Energy Engineering with an
electrical specialisation or similar.
Content, progress and pedagogy of the
module
Learning objectives
Knowledge
- Have knowledge and understanding within the technique of the
grid and system challenges that the electricity power system in
Denmark is expected to face in the future in terms of design and
system operation.
Skills
- Be able to explain the grid technique and systemic challenges
of electricity supply in Denmark in the future facing, both design
and / or terms of system operation
- Be able to analyse and assess the structure, composition,
interaction and mutual influence between the relevant parts of the
electricity grid and power system in one or more of the fields
distribution, transmission, production and consumption
- Be able to use and through that become familiar with earlier
learned electrical power system theory
- Be able to identify, evaluate, and argue for changes in
existing power system facilities taking into consideration high
personal security, high continuity of supply and finance

Type of instruction
The course will include lectures; guest-lectures; team work;
web-conferences/question time; and conference. With starting point
in Denmark's existing electrical power system, and known
political objectives and decisions for Denmark (at regional or
national level), students must analyse their way through to a
concrete solution for the future electricity supply in Denmark,
based on the course's theme and within a more defined,
self-elected project focus.
Extent and expected workload
Since it is a 5 ECTS course module, the work load is expected to
be 150 hours for the student.
