Modul EESYS-P-RES-M: Projekt Renewable Energy Systems

Person responsible for module:: Prof. Dr. Thorsten Staake

Contents: The students carry out a comprehensive IT project in the field of electricity grids, energy conservation or
internet of things. The topic will be announced in the first session.
The organization of the project work includes all phases of a project’s lifecycle with a focus on scoping,
planning, execution, and monitoring. The participants apply agile project management methods (“scrum”)
and work autonomously towards their goal. The course advisor serves as scrum project owner.
The technical content of the project typically includes machine learning, further data analytics tasks,
systems for decision support, and work that relates to networked sensors and actuators. Tasks can also
include programming for mobile devices. The project goal is defined in a way that participants may have
to acquire and extend their skills both regarding project management tasks and regarding the technical
execution by means of independent studies.
The language of instruction is agreed upon in the first course together with the course participants.

 

Learning outcomes: Students will have developed a state-of-the-art tool for the energy industry or have worked on an extensive
problem to support organizations in their decision-making. After completing this module, students are able
to
? capture and analyze requirements of an IT project and to work out implementations,
? collect and process suitable data for the given problem,
? work in an agile project team and apply agile project management methods, and
? prepare and hold project interim and final presentations appropriate to the target group.
