Power Electronics Microgrid Short Course

The Future Renewable Electric Energy Delivery and Management (FREEDM) Systems Center has a mission to create the Energy Internet that allows renewable energy, storage, and loads to be added and controlled seamlessly at the distribution level of the power system.  Started as a National Science Foundation Engineering Research Center in 2008, we apply new research in power electronics and controls to connect more distributed energy resources to the grid.  Our team is made up of faculty and students from NC State University, Arizona University, Florida State University, Florida A&M University and Missourt S&T University.

Registration deadline is January 11, 2019
The integration of distributed generation, load balancing and energy storage form the model of a microgrid, and power electronics (PE) have become an important part of modern microgrids. Not only are many storage and distributed generation systems connected to the microgrid via PE converters, many of the modern loads use some sort of power conversion to ensure high-efficiency and high-performance operation.
Taught by NC State University faculty & industry professionals, this course is targeted towards working professionals with backgrounds in engineering, including project engineers, program managers, system integrators, and utility engineers. <A HREF="https://www.freedm.ncsu.edu/event/short-course-microgrids/" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Click here to read the course outline</A>.
