This certificate introduces the most promising battery storage technologies and how they can affect the future of the transportation and power sectors. -
This certificate has been designed as an introduction to the integration and regulation of different energy systems. You will learn how energy vectors – fuels, electricity, and heating – interact and how to find added value at the interfaces between them. You’ll also build insights into the ways in which energy systems connect to other infrastructures, such as data networks, water, and transportation systems. And you will learn about how consumer psychology and society have a role in building a more sustainable, reliable, and cost-effective energy system. -
This certificate gives you unparalleled insight into the fundamentals of power systems, from direct to alternating current, active to reactive power, and more. You will explore frequency control, how active demand and storage can support the system, and the future evolution of the electricity grid. And you will emerge with a rock-solid understanding of the key issues at play. -
This mini-certificate provides an understanding on how the future transportation sector will impact the energy system both by putting stress on the electricity grid and by delivering valuable new services to the grid. Participants learn to make a realistic estimation of when our mobility system could go electric and which obstacles need to be tackled first. -
This certificate explores the potential role and position of battery storage in the future European electricity industry, by shedding light on different applications of battery storage. For each of the four main applications of grid-scale, behind-the-meter, off-grid and mobility, you will learn about the most promising services of battery storage in the electricity system that has a large share of renewable electricity. You will discover why the development and deployment of battery storage has been slow, despite it being a promising solution, but also why the time has come for the electricity industry to make smart battery choices. -
This course introduces essential safety aspects of battery manufacturing, testing, storage, handling, and disposal. It covers administrative and engineering controls, risks and hazards, mitigation, and safety compliance across all phases of the battery lifecycle. Participants will learn to recognize appropriate safety measures, use personal protective equipment (PPE) effectively, and identify key regulations to maintain safety standards and compliance. In addition, emphasis is given to the importance of personal responsibility for safety at all levels of the workplace and throughout the battery lifecycle. -
This certificate discusses the need of power converters for battery applications. It dives into the different types of power converters and explains the underlying principles. The use of power converters is illustrated via a number of applications. The fundamental concept of efficiency is discussed. -
This mini-certificate provides a deep yet simple explanation of the operational principles of a rechargeable battery. The certification spotlights the importance and discusses the fundamentals of the ‘electrochemical cell’ which is the heart of any battery system independent of the storage size. A direct link is set forth between the chemical nature of the cell components and the storage properties of interest such as ‘electromotive force’ and gravimetric & volumetric capacities. Specific attention is directed towards lithium-ion batteries by presenting more details about the materials of choice for the anode/cathode together with their synthesis methods. -
This mini-certificate explains how a lithium-ion cell can be designed, sized, and produced for a specific capacity and energy. The key steps in the selection and production of the main components of the cell, i.e. electrodes, separator, and electrolyte, are discussed. The slurry formulation, mixing, coating, drying, calendaring, cutting, stacking, electrolyte formulation/injection, sealing/packing, and formation cycles are detailed both in terms of machineries and the processing parameters. -
This mini-certificate discusses different methods for battery testing. The importance of testing, related standards, needed testing infrastructure and analysis tools are individually tackled. This series also highlights how the output of battery testing is viable for battery modelling that supports the battery use phase and can possibly be implemented on battery management systems. -
This mini-certificate explains the need for a BMS for different battery technologies, highlight several possible configurations and discuss the communication means. More advanced features are introduced related to the state of the battery system and guaranteeing that the latter is optimally used. -
This mini-certificate focuses on the next generation electrolytes for Li-ion and Lithium metal batteries, the solid electrolytes, explaining why the shift to a solid electrolyte is necessary, which types of solid electrolytes exist, how they work and their specific features and benefits.
