Module C: Electrical Power Engineering

Electric energy is one of the most versatile energies. The basic characteristics of the most important sources of electric energy, their properties and ways of their use are shown. The basics of the technical characteristics of the most important processes for conversion into electric energy are explained. The current issues related to the supply of electric energy and the most important processes related to it are shown, from sources of electric energy, through transmission and distribution devices to end users of electric energy. The focus is on more advanced technologies and the environmental impact of the entire chain of activities related to the supply of electric energy. 

The aim of the course is to show the needs of conversion into electric energy. Students will acquire basic knowledge in the field of electric power supply and transmission and distribution of electrici power. Aspects of environmental protection are particularly emphasized. Special attention is paid to renewable energy sources such as wind, water, sun, biomass, and also efficient use of energy. Students will get to know practical examples and problems related to renewable resources.
