Renewable Energy Integration Knowledge Village, Dubai

Course details

Renewable Energy Integration focuses on incorporating renewable energy, distributed generation, energy storage, thermally activated technologies, and demand response into the electric distribution and transmission system. A systems approach is being used to conduct integration development and demonstrations to address technical, economic, regulatory, and institutional barriers for using renewable and distributed systems. In addition to fully addressing operational issues, the integration also establishes viable business models for incorporating these technologies into capacity planning, grid operations, and demand-side management.

Electric utilities are increasingly tasked with meeting Renewable Portfolio Standards, and are looking to generate power from wind, solar, geothermal, and biomass sources. But integrating the power from such renewable sources into the grid can be a daunting challenge.

This AZTech training course will feature:

• Reduce carbon emissions and emissions of other air pollutants through increased use of renewable energy and other clean distributed generation
• Increase asset use through integration of distributed systems and customer loads to reduce peak load and thus lower the costs of electricity
• Support achievement of renewable portfolio standards for renewable energy and energy efficiency
• Enhance reliability, security, and resiliency from microgrid applications in critical infrastructure protection and highly constrained areas of the electric grid
• Support reductions in oil use by enabling plug-in electric vehicle (PHEV) operations with the grid
• Emphasis on wind power, solar power and energy storage systems

 
What are the Goals?

By the end of this AZTech training course, participants will be able to:

• Understand the grid flexibility to  renewable energy integration
• Determine the various types of renewable energy
• Explain the different types of solar panels
• Analyse the common types of wind farms
• Understand the various type of energy storage systems
