We are pleased to announce the 2nd SUNRISE Summer School, building on the success of last year’s edition! This four-day intensive program will provide participants with theoretical knowledge and hands-on experience in real-time applications for integrating renewable energy sources. Led by renowned experts from academia and industry, the program offers a unique blend of theory and practical application.
This year’s edition, “Accelerating Renewable Energy Integration: From Real-Time Simulation to Final Real-World Implementation,” is open to MS and PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, and industry professionals interested in power systems, renewable energy integration, and smart grids.
