Course history

Introduction

This course covers contemporary topics in smart energy systems such as smart power grid, smart buildings, vehicle-to-grid (V2G) and communication technologies for and network security in smart energy systems, including emerging approaches towards energy intelligence such as machine learning and blockchain.

The course will be offered once a year, provided 5 or more students sign up for the course. If less than 5 students sign up for a course, the course will be cancelled for that year

Recommended preliminary courses

Bachelor's or master's degree in engineering or science.

Required preliminary courses

None.

Learning outcomes

Det er et krav om 100% tilstedeværelse i praksis i alle praksisperiodene. Ved fravær må dagene tas igjen etter avtale med praksissted og emneansvarlig/praksisseksjonen ved LUI.

Content

The course is divided into three modules.

The first module covers lectures on economic interactions for the energy market, focusing mainly on applications such as demand response management (DRM), and vehicle-to-grid (V2G), etc.

The second module consists of lectures on current and emerging approaches such as machine learning and blockchain for energy intelligence and network security.

The third module will be a seminar which will include a hands-on session on tools such as optimisation and machine learning for solving specific problems in future energy information networks, and will conclude with a project assignment to be submitted by a given deadline.
