About the Course:

To fulfill the increasing electric power demand one of the ideal ways is to incorporate small renewable-based generations to the existing distribution system. The distribution system embedded with distribution generations (DGs) is called a microgrid. Adding DGs possesses new challenges such as control, operation and management, and protection of microgrid. Therefore, the aim of RTM-2020 is to provide thorough knowledge and understanding about the topic and to equip with new ideas related to research and development.

The short-term course will be organized in an online mode and the link for attending the course will be shared only with the shortlisted candidates.

Short term course topics:

# Basics of microgrid

# Distributed generations (DGs)

# Pros and cons of different DGs

# Operation and control of renewable-based DGs

# Challenges in microgrid with embedded DGs

# Impact of DGs on environmental pollution

# Protection against fault in microgrid

# Protection against islanding in microgrid

# Voltage stability

# Deregulation in a microgrid environment

# Other relevant topics

Number of Seats:

Limited number of seats are there on first cum first serve basis.
