Course detail
Power Engineering
FSI-6EIAcad. year: 2022/2023
The course presents an introductory insight into the issue of available energy sources and energy transformations used for electricity and heat production. Specifically, the principles and main features of energy centals working in the Czech Republic will be introduced, accompanied by the introduction of the main components. The course will briefly present the issue of electricity distribution and control of the electrical system. Significant attention will be paid to new trends in electricity generation, including the possibility of accumulation.
