Electricity regulation cannot be fully understood without understanding the physical system behind it. This course offers a practical and accessible introduction to the technical fundamentals of electricity supply for professionals without a technical background.
The programme explains, step by step, how power systems are built and operated, covering the main components of generation, transmission, distribution and system control. Complex technical concepts are translated into clear language and supported by practical examples, helping participants understand the technical realities that shape decisions across the electricity sector.
The course equips regulators, policy professionals and market participants with the technical foundation needed to engage more confidently with electricity sector issues and to contribute to better-informed regulatory and policy outcomes.
1-day site visit will be organised for course participants.
This course is eligible for 5 CER credits. More information on the Certified Energy Regulator (CER).
ERRA CER Diploma holders will receive a 20% discount upon registration for the course.
The program is available to classroom and remote participants parallel. Thus, if you cannot travel to Budapest for any reason, you do not need to miss this unique technical learning opportunity, you can sign up for online participation.
For more details or any questions, please contact the ERRA Secretariat.
ERRA is extending its 3-day Power Sector Basics for Non-Engineers Training Course with content on Natural Gas. Participants might choose to join the electricity or the natural gas block only but they might decide to sign up for all 4 days (incl. site visit).
