We are in the midst of a large-scale electrification of society. Norway has already committed to major greenhouse gas cuts by 2030 (50-55% reduction). In order to achieve this goal, the government decided in May 2022 that arrangements will be made for the installation of 30,000 MW of offshore wind in Norwegian sea areas by 2040. This amounts to an energy production that is close to the total hydropower production in Norway. With the introduction of large amounts of unregulated renewable production, as well as a transition from fossil energy carriers to renewable energy for transport, various forms of renewable energy storage will become significantly more important. The aim of the education is to give the student competence in wind power and the work that is done in connection with wind turbines, as well as various forms of energy storage and energy systems associated with unregulated energy production.
