Learning Outcomes
Competences
Students can independently model, analyze, and evaluate business processes in liberalized energy markets. They are able to understand the interaction of market roles and the importance of standardized processes such as supply contract management, grid usage contracting, and energy settlement. Students can apply appropriate methodologies and tools for process modelling, evaluate rollout and monitoring procedures, and ensure interoperability, efficiency, and compliance with regulatory requirements.
