This course will teach the impact of the new proposed non-wire alternatives/solutions on the generation, transmission, substations, and distribution systems.
On a global scale, several groups are working tirelessly to promote renewables and non-wire alternatives (NWA) or non-wire solutions (NWS) to mitigate forecasted load demand and defer traditional transmission and distribution (T&D) load relief/capital expenditures. In certain locations, the utility core functions have shifted/changed significantly. Customers’ role has changed as well; from passive energy consumers to power producers.
This course is intended for electrical, renewable and sustainability engineers as well as others interested in learning more about non-Wire Alternatives/Solutions.
Learning Objectives
At the successful conclusion of this course, you’ll be able to identify and discuss:- Understanding what are the Non-Wire Alternatives (NWAs)
- Familiarizing with the regulatory changes
- Learning about deferring traditional transmission and distribution load relief
- Understanding Transmission vs. Distribution load relief
- Knowing the various distribution designs
- Familiarizing with creative solutions and non-traditional deferral means
- Familiarizing with Storage, CO-Gen/CHP and Fuel Cell
- Understanding the pros/cons and future innovative NWA
