227-0085-14L | P&S: Technical and Economic Aspects of Renewable Energy Supply ![]() Does not take place this semester. The course unit can only be taken once. Repeated enrollment in a later semester is not creditable. | 3 credits | 3P | G. Hug | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Abstract | The category of "Laboratory Courses, Projects, Seminars" includes courses and laboratories in various formats designed to impart practical knowledge and skills. Moreover, these classes encourage independent experimentation and design, allow for explorative learning and teach the methodology of project work. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Learning objective | With the Net-Zero Programme (https://ethz.ch/en/the-eth-zurich/sustainability/net-zero.html) ETH wants to contribute to addressing climate change by reducing its own emissions. As one of the largest departments at ETH, D-ITET also needs to identify measures how as a department we can contribute to these goals. Thereby, it is important to take measures which are effective and have the highest potential for emissions and/or energy consumption reductions. In this P&S, the goal is to support the department in that regard and to quantify the effect of potential measures. Without specific numbers and a thorough analysis it is not possible to separate measures with negligible impact from such with major impact. The students are free to choose a specific measure that they would like to analyze. For example, this could entail an assessment (by measurements and/or calculations) of how much energy can be saved by temperature control in offices or turning off specific devices instead of keeping them in standby or how much energy could be produced by installing PV on all buildings and how much of this can be used to supply the energy needs, etc. At the end of the P&S, the students have not only learnt how to approach such questions but ideally are also in the position to recommend very specific measures to be implemented. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
227-0085-69L | P&S: Let’s make ITET green! ![]() Only for Electrical Engineering and Information Technology BSc. Course can only be registered for once. A repeatedly registration in a later semester is not chargeable. | 3 credits | 3P | G. Hug, L. Josipovic, K. Razavi | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Without specific numbers and a thorough analysis it is not possible to separate measures with negligible impact from such with major impact. The students are free to choose a specific measure that they would like to analyze. Examples of potential net-zero related measures include 1) assessing (by measurements and/or calculations) how much energy can be saved by temperature control in offices or turning off specific devices instead of keeping them in standby, 2) estimating how much energy could be produced by installing PV on all D-ITET buildings and how much of this can be used to supply the energy needs, 3) analyzing the power requirements and schedule of electrified vehicles using the charging stations of the department, 4) reporting power input requirements of D-ITET buildings (e.g., server rooms) and suggestions to improve their energy efficiency, 5) design auxiliary information of interest to building occupants, such as green features of their building, energy tips, the equivalent energy consumption (ex. Building ETL consumed x kWh, which could power the Eiffel Tower for y hours.) etc. At the end of the P&S, the students have not only learnt how to approach such questions but ideally are also in the position to recommend very specific measures to be implemented and actively promote sustainability in the department. There is also some budget available in case additional measurement equipment needs to be installed. Course day 1 (Lecture): 1.10.2024, 1pm to 3pm. Course day 2 (Lecture): 15.10.2024, 1pm to 3pm. Course day 3 (Students Presentations): 9.12.2024, 3pm to 5pm | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

227-0526-00L | Power System Analysis | 6 credits | 4G | G. Hug, G. Valverde Mora | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Abstract | The goal of this course is understanding the stationary dependencies in electrical power systems. The course includes the development of stationary models of the electrical network, their mathematical representation and special characteristics and solution methods of large linear and non-linear systems of equations related to electrical power networks. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Learning objective | The goal of this course is understanding the stationary dependencies in electrical power systems and the application of analysis tools in normal but also in faulty state. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Content | The course includes the development of stationary models of the electrical network, their mathematical representation and special characteristics and solution methods of large linear and non-linear systems of equations related to electrical power grids. Approaches such as the Newton-Raphson algorithm applied to power flow equations, superposition technique for short-circuit analysis and symmetrical components are discussed as well as power flow computation techniques for distribution grids and state estimation. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
