Modern power engineering is concerned with the generation, transmission, and distribution of electrical power within a large interconnected network. You will learn the principles of classical and modern power systems and develop an understanding of the theory and modelling of component behaviour under steady-state and transient conditions. You will also explore the challenges faced by the electricity industry from distributed generation and storage of electricity by PV cells. You will also learn how to use sophisticated software tools to design and evaluate the performance of power systems.
