ESL 738 - Detailed Syllabus

This document outlines a proposed course on power system planning and operation. The 3 credit course would be offered in the 2nd semester to postgraduate students. It has 3 lecture hours per week and no tutorial or lab components. The course aims to teach students how to formulate and solve power system planning problems using optimization techniques. Key topics include reliability indices, interconnected system operation, and applications of optimization to generation, transmission, and reactive power planning. Assessment will include open-ended problems and a project-type activity accounting for 25% each of student time.
