Internet of Energy

None

The course will focus on information and communication technologies (ICT) for the acquisition, processing and visualisation of data in a regenerative and networked energy system.

• Collection, storage, processing and communication of data at the field level (smart metering)
• Wired and non-wired communication technologies, e.g. field bus systems, radio networks, fiber optic networks as well as Internet and Powerline
• Digital platforms for the network operator (network control systems), industry and commerce (energy management systems) and prosumer (smart home)
• Data security and critical infrastructures
• Scenarios and migration paths for the Internet of Energy

At the end of this course, students are familiar with typical information and communication technologies (ICT) and their application in distributed, digitized energy systems. They can record possible paths to the Internet of Energy, i.e. to digitalisation. They can identify and classify the potentials and challenges with regard to the digitisation of the energy system. The students know

• Typical ICT for the acquisition, transmission and processing of information in regenerative decentralised energy systems. They can describe them in a control level model and compare them.
• ICT and its system interrelationships in detail for an example application (e.g., electromobility).
• Digital platforms for operators of energy networks (network control systems), industry and commerce (energy management systems) and prosumers (smart home). They can describe technology and function as well as identify and classify potentials and risks.
• the legal basis for data security. They can also describe and classify the effects with regard to the digitisation of critical energy supply infrastructures.

•  Lectures
•  Discussions
•  Exercises
•  Field trips

• Presentation (25%) and
• a written or oral exam (75%)

For a positive grade, a minimum of 50% of the possible points must be achieved across all parts of the examination.
