DETAILED COURSE CONTENT

What the training covers.

This is the established program foundation. We adjust emphasis, examples, exercises, and depth to match your organization and participant experience.

MODULE01

Electric vehicles and the power system

Trace electrification impacts across generation, transmission, substations, distribution, and customers.

  • Passenger and fleet electrification
  • Load growth and charging patterns
  • Substation and distribution-system impact
  • Reliability, resilience, and future grid changes
MODULE02

Flexible charging and grid services

Understand how vehicles can become controllable loads and grid resources.

  • Smart charging
  • Vehicle-to-home and vehicle-to-grid
  • Demand response and electric-rate impacts
  • Large vehicles, buses, fleets, and port electrification
MODULE03

Microgrid design and operation

Compare nano-, micro-, and macro-grid concepts and operating modes.

  • Microgrid components and configurations
  • Parallel and islanded operation
  • Blue-sky and black-sky use cases
  • Regulatory, control, and system-operator challenges
MODULE04

Non-wire solutions

Evaluate alternatives to traditional transmission and distribution load relief.

  • Customer-sited and utility-scale solutions
  • Solar, storage, demand response, and efficiency
  • Fuel cells, cogeneration, and combined heat and power
  • Non-wire solutions that fail to resolve the underlying constraint
MODULE05

Planning an integrated response

Bring electrification, resilience, and investment decisions into one grid-planning view.

  • Forecasting new electric demand
  • Comparing traditional and nontraditional deferral options
  • Reliability and VAR considerations
  • Scenario exercises based on actual operating events
