ENEE20001 - Advanced Power System Analysis and Control

General Information

Unit Synopsis

In this unit, you will learn to work both individually and in teams in the planning, analysis, and design of power systems and their associated control systems using state-of-the-art methods. You will design power systems to incorporate the growing penetration of renewable energy sources. In order to do this, you will develop advanced skills to effectively design, analyse, and augment power systems to maximise reliability, security, and sustainability. Upon successful completion of this unit, you will be able to analyse systems incorporating renewable energy sources both dynamically and in steady-state using industry-standard software such as Power System Simulator for Engineering (PSSE). You will be able to tune control systems to satisfy Australian network standards and you will become competent to meet the challenges and opportunities of 21st-century power systems as they continue to evolve. You will apply skills in ENEE20001 to work towards the United Nations sustainable development goal. Online students are required to attend a residential school.
