Abstract

The role of education and training is of great importance to be able to face the current and future challenges of the energy transition. The main goal of this document is to provide a systematic overview of innovative teaching methods and tools for power and energy systems, offering a benchmark for the academic community and aiming to serve as a reference for the coming years. It reports on new skills needed in the power and energy sector, identifies skill gaps and highlights the need for interdisciplinary approaches. Advanced educational methods are presented, such as active learning, problem-based, experiential learning and flipped classroom. Methods to assess the learning of the students and the teaching of the instructors are presented, along with results of an international survey launched by the Task Force. New trends in laboratory education, namely remote/virtual laboratories, real-time HIL simulation, real-life living labs and augmented/virtual reality, are presented through actual experiences. Αn overview of simulation tools and e-learning approaches is provided, such as interactive notebooks, open-source methods and blended learning. Recommendations for education and training on power and energy systems are provided. Additional information and specific applications are included in the Appendix.
