Energy Systems Technologies

The lecture Energy Systems Technologies is aimed at Master's students of electrical engineering and includes the holistic consideration of thermal, electrical and chemical energy systems and their individual components. In addition to the technical description and design of concepts such as sector coupling and storage, ecological and economic aspects are also presented for the holistic evaluation of energy systems.

Energy Systems Technologies deals with the consideration of energy systems, consisting of the provision of useful energy, energy distribution and the energy demand. In this course, the fundamentals of energy systems are taught. For this purpose, based on the descriptions of the main individual components, their interaction in particular is analyzed with regard to meeting the energy demand. Accordingly, aspects of sector coupling as well as storage technologies as components of energy systems are introduced. In addition to the technical description and design of energy systems, ecological and economic aspects for the holistic evaluation of energy systems are also presented.
