The Green Power Conversion and Utilization course addresses these topics by providing fundamental principles of electrical energy conversion and utilization from renewable sources. The course will analyze the main static and electromechanical energy conversion systems, with particular focus on the following topics:
- Renewable energy sources: Principles and an overview of the main available technologies.
- Generation and conversion system architectures: Configurations and key components.
- Static converters for renewable sources: Inverters, DC/DC converters, and rectifiers.
- Power exchange control between inverters and the grid: Management and regulation strategies, grid interfacing (challenges and solutions for power quality).
- Electromechanical generators for renewable sources: Cage induction machines, doubly-fed induction generators (DFIG), and synchronous machines.
- Energy storage technologies: Characterization parameters and key technologies (pumped storage, electrochemical and kinetic storage).
- Wind and solar power generation systems: Analysis of typical configurations and optimization strategies.
The course includes practical exercises and simulation of renewable energy generation systems using Matlab/Simulink.
