Description: The course will provide training and education in the field of power system protection, in particular, the protection of modern power systems with large scale penetration of power electronic interfaced renewable energy based power plants and other power electronic systems. Power electronic applications have brought many challenges to modern power systems, one significant aspect is power system protection, mainly due to the short circuit power changes and various control modes of power electronic converters. The course will describe the impacts in technical details and present some recent research results.
The main topics are as follow:
- Basics of power system fault analysis and protection
- Fault characteristics of Power Electronic interfaced Renewable Power Plants (PERPP)
- Impacts of PERPP on power system protection
- Some Research activities on the protection of modern power systems
Prerequisites: Preferably to have general knowledge in electrical engineering, especially, power system and power electronics
Price: 6000 DKK for PhD students outside of Denmark and 8000 DKK for the Industry excl. VAT. A link for online payment by credit card for externals participants will be annonced after deadline for registration

Important information concerning PhD courses: We have over some time experienced problems with no-show for both project and general courses. It has now reached a point where we are forced to take action. Therefore, the Doctoral School has decided to introduce a no-show fee of DKK 3000 for each course where the student does not show up. Cancellations are accepted no later than 2 weeks before start of the course. Registered illness is of course an acceptable reason for not showing up on those days. Furthermore, all courses open for registration approximately four months before start. This can hopefully also provide new students a chance to register for courses during the year. We look forward to your registrations.
