Electrical Power Engineering

Electricity is the most flexible and efficient source of energy to power mankind. If we improve the exploitation of sustainable energy sources, electricity is sure to play a leading role throughout the foreseeable future. In the decades to come, a revolution will unfold in the generation and delivery of electrical power, driven by the large-scale introduction of renewable and distributed power generation, the need for environmentally friendly and sustainable components and the liberalisation of the energy markets.
Electrical power engineers are needed to design new components with an eye towards sustainable materials and efficient conversion processes, as well as to integrate them into a smart and adaptable electricity infrastructure.
