NE0335 : Modern Trends in Renewables: Insights into Solar Power, Wind Power Developments & Technologies

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators.
This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Modern Trends in Renewables: Insights into Solar Power, Wind Power Developments & Technologies. It covers the role of renewables in energy transition and decarbonization; the key policies and regulatory drivers for renewable adoption; the fundamentals of solar power technologies and wind power technologies; the key challenges in renewable energy deployment; the battery storage technologies and applications, pumped hydro and compressed air storage systems; and the role of storage in balancing renewable supply and demand.
Further, the course will also discuss the renewable energy policy and market drivers and advances in PV cell technologies; the concentrated solar power (CSP) innovations, solar tracking and control systems and solar power plant design and optimization; the off-grid and distributed solar solutions and solar power O&M and lifecycle management; the next-generation wind turbine designs, offshore wind power technologies and wind speed and direction measurement techniques; the control systems and smart turbine operation; and the hybrid wind power systems and wind power O&M and asset management.
During this interactive course, participants will learn the energy storage for renewables, smart grids and renewable integration and power electronics for solar and wind systems; the digitalization and IoT in renewable energy, hydrogen production from renewables and resilience and cybersecurity in renewable energy systems; the emerging solar power trends, emerging wind power trends and floating renewable energy platforms; and the decarbonization and sector coupling and roadmap for the future of renewables.
