Περιγραφή Μαθήματος

The rapid evolution of Smart Grid Technologies in distribution systems is due to advances in automation and communication technologies that tend to optimize the planning and operation of the traditional distribution system. With students coming from different backgrounds of electrical, computer and electronic engineering, this course aims to provide a common basis for everyone attending the MSc in Smart Grids by covering the most important aspects of electric power distribution in a concise way. The focus is on topics that are mainly related but not limited to distribution grids and that are of particular interest to the smart grid transformation.
