Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) Grid Impact – Energy Storage
Note: This is a recorded video presentation and does not qualify as a live interactive course nor a live webinar.
This engineering online PDH video presentation will establish, through slides and discussions, the impact of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) while highlighting the role of energy storage on the electric transmission and distribution grid.
This presentation will discuss the critical role energy storage will play in the 100% clean and renewable energy systems by 2050 or sooner. Various energy storage stacking options will be discussed in great detail including:
- Deferring transmission and distribution load relief projects
- Peak shifting
- Microgrids
- Solar smoothing
- Non-wire solutions
Additionally, various energy storage types, applications, key energy storage components, critical information, and battery management systems will be discussed. We will highlight the impact of energy storage on the power generation, transmission, and distribution systems as well as utilizing DERs’ inverters and other fast acting electronics to adjust the voltage. Solar performance during sunny, cloudy and peak days will be analyzed as well as the impact of the frequency market energy storage.
This 3 PDH online video presentation is intended for electrical, mechanical and computer engineers as well as others involved in a technical and non-technical level in the renewable energy world who are interested in learning more about the future of the energy systems and the impact of solar, wind, energy storage, fuel-cells, distributed generation, etc. and how to maintain a reliable grid.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Familiarizing with distribution energy resources at a high level
- Learning about different energy storage types
- Learning about the different state goals
- Understanding the Power Triangle
- Discussing stacking options
- Understanding grid interconnections
- Understanding the per-unit system
- Learning about battery management systems
