1. In this course, participants will learn some basic issues related to the development of the distribution grid in the future. 2
2. The aim of the course is to clarify concepts and to give an overview and introduction to opportunities and problems with these types of technologies.
3. The course will provide a good basis for further specialization within the various topics.
4. Arrangements will be established so that participants with different backgrounds can start the course with the necessary professional basis.
5. The project assignment is tried to be adapted to specific cases that are present and relevant to the participant/business - if possible.

The course is based on lectures by experts in the relevant topics. Lectures, individual exercises/assignments, group exercises, as well as a project assignment to be solved during the period between and after the sessions. It is emphasized that it should be possible to discuss relevant issues during the meetings.
