This cours is about how electric energy supports our everyday life and how it is transmitted from power plants to our computers, mobile phone chargers and electric cars. We look in behind the power socket and learn how to control the current is controlled in efficient and safe waysl Without a reliable electric energy supply wouldn’t life be as comfortable and safe.
However, we are also facing new challenges, e.g smart grids that enable the users also to be producers. Solar panels, wind mills and smart heating boilers that also produce electricity can play an important role. In this course we give you the basic skills for becoming a master of electric energy!
The course consists of the following topics:
After the project course the student should know:
General entrance requirements. - successful completion of upper secondary education, knowledge of Swedish and English and basic knowledge in electric circuits
If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.
Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.
The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.
