The electricity industry is changing rapidly and with it the demands on specialists. Find out in the Speakers Corner about the results of current research projects and which training, further education and courses the leading universities are currently offering or will soon be offering!
Zurich University of Applied Sciences ZHAW:
CAS Sustainable Smart Cities & Regions - Data, Energy, and Mobility
Advanced training in smart grid strategies: Smart meters and other smart grid technologies offer opportunities for innovative business models that help to plan and operate energy systems and grids more efficiently. Our training programme provides an overview of relevant technologies, use cases, legal principles and current trends in order to develop a smart grid strategy.
Eastern Switzerland University of Applied Sciences:
Further education opportunities at the IET Institute of Energy Technology: The IET Institute of Energy Technology offers further education programmes on the topics of flow simulation, hydrogen and CO2, as well as machine learning. Wind energy, electromagnetic simulations and building technology are further areas of research.
Swiss Federal Institute of Technology ETH:
Flexibility provision in Switzerland's future sector-coupled energy system: Switzerland's transition to carbon neutrality requires balancing seasonal energy supply and demand. This presentation explores the flexibility of integrated power, hydrogen, and methane infrastructure to meet this challenge while adhering to national sustainability and security policies. We highlight the need for significant renewable capacity expansion, energy trades for cost-efficiency, and hydrogen and methane storage for energy security.
CSEM - Swiss Technology Innovation Centre:
High-resolution PV forecasting: A limitation of modern approaches to photovoltaic (PV) power forecasting is that it requires precise, high spatial and temporal resolution, a high computational and storage effort. CSEM has developed a PV forecasting approach to overcome these limitations. The lecture will be held in English.
