Thermal and electric power production and use, in isolated rural areas or non-grid connected areas

SUS08

The supply of energy to isolated areas is achieved through the targeted design of power systems, able to connect and use resources - already or potentially available - without overburdening current ecosystems, thereby enhancing local economies.

Today, correctly evaluating the feasibility of integrated systems is the key to understanding future scenarios for improvement in non-grid connected areas.

The executive course “Thermal and electric power production and use, in isolated rural areas or non-grid connected areas” offers tools, insights and perspectives, that will enable participants to understand and define open-minded development policies.
