The Power and Energy Systems graduate program at Chulalongkorn University covers topics across the electric power industry, including generation, transmission, distribution, and end-uses. Thesis research often involves collaborations with Thai energy organizations on issues like renewable energy utilization and power market design. Courses focus on topics such as power system stability, economics, and distributed generation. Past projects have evaluated smart grid initiatives and the impacts of solar power in Thailand and the Philippines. Program facilities include software, databases, and computer/printing resources to support student research.
2. Vision
Power and Energy Systems (PES) has been one of the key areas
of study for sustainable development, both in local and global
contexts.
The graduate study and research under PES at Chulalongkorn
University, cover broad spectrum of the entire electric power
industry; from Generation, Transmission, Distribution, to End-uses,
as well as the emerging topics relating modern energy networks
and power trading, such as Renewable Energy Utilization, Power
System Economics and Power Market Design.
Many thesis topics undertaken by master and doctoral students in
this area arise from our strong research collaboration with the
National Energy Policy and Planning Office, Energy Regulator
Commissioner, and the three main utilities in Thailand, i.e. EGAT,
PEA and MEA.
