EET-190 Sustainable Electrical Energy Generation

Sustainable Electrical Energy Generation,describes the operation of photovoltaic (PV),systems comprised of solar modules, batteries,,battery chargers, and inverters to produce,power-grid-quality ac voltage. Wind turbines are,also studied including generators, alternators,,rectification, inverters, and resistive loading,during periods of light loading. Fuel cell,characteristics, control and monitoring are also,explored. The integration of these three,technologies is also investigated. Microhydro,generation of electrical power is introduced.,Safety considerations and electrical codes are,emphasized throughout the course. This course,helps you prepare for the renewable energy,certification examinations and others offered by,the Electronics Technicians Association,,International.
