Basics of Enterprise and Software Architectures

COURSE DURATION

1 Day

CLASS DESCRIPTION

Perhaps more than other industries, engineering for energy has become an increasingly complex process with demands for digitalisation and interconnected services and products in increasing. Thus, a fundamental understanding of utilities applications and energy digitalisation is essential for all systems engineers working in this domain.

The course provides the basics of energy systems, power grid and energy market operation principles, processes, models and trends, hence allowing participants to understand the development of the energy sector in the past years and in the near future. It also allows to understand the reasons and impacts energy systems architectural changes.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

• Define the business and IT-applications landscape so that you, your management and your suppliers (also new ones) can understand it.
• Apply the “out-of-TSO/DSO-box-thinking”.
