ALPGRIDS

Microgrid summer school

Following the objectives of the European Project ALPGRIDS, the course satisfies the need to strengthen the skills in the design and operational management of polygeneration microgrids and energy communities characterized by the integration of different energy technologies for distributed generation.

The need to train a figure of Expert in Microgrid & Energy Community Design and Management originates from the importance that the implementation of the concept of sustainable energy, through the development of polygenerative microgrids and energy communities, is assuming both at European and national level.

Department of the Electrical, Electronics and Telecommunication Engineering and Naval Architecture Department (DITEN), in collaboration with the service Centre (CenVIS) for the management of Ventimiglia, Imperia and Savona campuses

The Summer School is part of the Interreg Alpine Space called ALPGRIDS (Increasing RES uptake through Microgrids in the Alps).

The professional figure has skills in the design and operational management of polygeneration microgrids and energy communities characterized by the integration of different distributed energy technologies.

The course is addressed to recently graduated students (BSc and MSc) who have obtained their qualification no more than 3 years ago in a university based in the Alpine Space regions.

Knowledge of English is required.

A maximum of 40 students are admitted to the Course: 20 attending in presence and 20 attending remotely.

The course includes 136 hours of training and 6 hours of verification, divided as follows:

• 35 hours of lectures
• 25 hours of project work
• 76 hours of individual study
• 6 hours of verification: 1 hour dedicated to learning outcome 1 (module 1), 1 hour dedicated to learning outcome 2 (module 2) and 4 hours dedicated to the final evaluation of project work.

The classroom phase will take place from June 6th to June 10th 2022 and will last 1 week, full time, blended learning.
