Seasonal energy storage and conversion technologies

Yksittäinen kurssi

You can also complete 3 ECTS. The application is same as for the 5 ECTS version

Course contents

  • Introduction: Integration of different energy networks / vectors (heat, biogas, transport, natural gas network, hydrogen)
  • Energy conversion: Technologies, electromechanical energy conversion, wind energy conversion, solar energy conversion
  • Energy storage technologies: Electricity storage systems, mechanical (pumped hydro, compressed air, flywheel), electrochemical (secondary batteries, flow batteries), chemical (hydrogen), electrical (double-layer capacitor), thermal (sensible heat storage)
  • Large-scale storage applications: Heat storages and future district heating systems with distributed heat sources, seasonal storage solutions for smart and sustainable buildings in local energy communities
  • Modelling the long-term deployment of energy storage integrated energy systems

Learning outcomes

By the end of the course, the student

  • understands potentials and limitations of the sources and drivers for energy transition and more flexible energy systems
  • can describe physical and performance characteristics related to important energy conversion and storage technologies
  • has basic knowledge about effective integration of distributed energy resources for providing flexibility to the electricity networks
  • can evaluate energy conversion and storage requirements and design and select suitable solutions
  • can analyse and recommend conversion and storage technologies for different large-scale and long-term storage applications, including seasonal and grid energy storages
  • has a basic understanding of the future in the relevant professional jobs
  • has gained a solid theoretical foundation of engineering experience
  • has developed lifelong learning and interpersonal skills

Teaching methods

Lectures (recordings available) and exercises. There is no group work.  Exam or other equivalent assessment (most likely homework 30 % + report 70 %).
