The Sustainable Energy Systems programme prepares students for work in the broad field of energy system transformation towards a climate-neutral, economic and supply-secure future. The main technical perspective targets the transition of the electrical power system based on renewable energy. Knowledge of its future design is supplemented by competencies in sustainability and digitalization for smart grids and markets.
The course of study comprises of design, modelling, control and operation of electrical energy systems while considering sustainability perspectives. The course also prepares the students in distributed renewable generation, sector coupling with all energy sectors, and related energy market designs.
