Argomenti del programma: 1. Introduction to the electrical grid system and to the challenges and opportunities offered by its current evolution towards the smart grid concept. In particular, electrical energy production from traditional and renewable sources will be considered, as well as requirements in various use cases and scenarios, role of non-programmable sources and impact on the network infrastructure, with a special focus on…
