The course provides a very good introduction to the basics of the electricity market. It commendable that the course is not focused on the US market, but also analyses case studies and models from other countries, which makes the content more interesting for non-US users. I believe the same effort should be put in selecting material that is not so tightly related to the US market and institutions. The reading material is actually meant to provide information additional to the video lectures and is not required to correctly answer the exam. The exams questions are perhaps a bit too easy, but you do fail them if you do not pay attention to the video lecture. Overall, I am satisfied with the course and would warmly suggest it to users interested in learning more about renewables and electricity markets in general.

Wonderful high level overview. The instructor was able to make everything very understandable.

It was a great journey thanks for sharing this knowledge with us

Good introduction to the field of renewable power and electricity systems, but nothing more. This course is not the right one for technical interested people or engineers with electrical background, due to missing technical depth of the course.

I found this course very succinct and helpful. Prof. Komor is a good presenter and very credible. There is some limited of repetition of some material presented in the first course in this "specialization", but it does not bog down and provides useful review/reinforcement. I also very much appreciated the breadth of the readings and the way he went back to different pages of the same documents. It helped to reinforce points, as well as to introduce us to the wide array of quality information available.

Coursera is a great platform and we are fortunate that people like Professors Komor and Lawrence are willing to take the time to make these opportunities available. Very much appreciated!

This course gives you a powerful basic knowledge of electricity, especially the renewable electricity system. It provides you with not only video lectures like regular courses, but it shows you case studies from different continents and also interviews with experienced persons in the field so that you understand the differences of electricity industry around the world and the practices in it. Even when the exams are pretty easy, the questions sum up most of the course material.

Overall, I am really satisfied and I enjoy this course. I suggest everyone that wants to know about basics of renewable power and electricity systems to try this course.

Excellent course. Great explanations and source materials. I had previously taken the Renewable Energy Technology Fundamentals course (also from the University of Colorado Boulder) and, even though some parts of this course cover the same topics, like wind and solar basics, in this course is more summarised and serves as a refresh/consolidation of what I had previously learnt.

This course is very usefull, help me to understand renewable power and electricity systems, start from renewable power basic, grid operations and integration, storage, demand flexibility, power industry structure where varies each country accompanied by cases study and ISO. All of those give foundation knowledge for me who want to be involved in renewable energy area

This is my first course on renewable power and it is amazing. Learnt a lot from Mr. Paul in this emerging field. Specially i liked the format of this course which suggests the reading some specific pages on international papers/documents for learning on the context.

Very good. Provides a good grasp of the complex balance necessary to produce and deliver electricity. Explores the US markets, and other systems. Highlights increasing use and falling costs of Solar, Wind, and Storage.

Excellent course. Way of teaching is so brilliant. All the concepts are explained very well. Thank you so much COURSERA and University of Colorado Boulder and i also appreciate your effort of giving knowledge globaly.

Awesome time learning. This course gave me clarity on The opportunities, challenges and future projection of Renewable Energy in a global view. It is packed with the right info. I recommend you sign up for this!

Excellent course. I have experience in operating power systems and this course helped me understand the changes the power systems and its operators must do to get advantages of VRE.

Instructor Paul did an excellent job with how he handelled the explanation of this course and would recommend taking it for all who are interested in R.E

Excellent course and designed very well...easy to understand and most appropriate depth suitable for even those who are not from energy sector!!!

Great introduction to the basic technical aspects of electricity systems. Highly valuable to those who do not come from a technical field.

The course covered the fundamental principles and operations of the electricity grid and also integration of renewables in the grid.

materi mudah dipahami, pelaksanaan yang fleksibel, menambah pemahaman materi dan mengerti cara penerapan di lapangan

Very Interesting course about an aspect of the renewable energy industry that I had not yet studied.

Курс сподобався. Дуже детальний огляд споживчого ринку електроенергії декількох держав був цікавим.

This is just the beginning as I continue expanding my knowledge in renewable energy solutions.

It is a good course providing fundamental and insightful knowledge about electricity system.

Thank you for amazing course. I improved my knowlodge with your compresive course.

Excellent primer for those interested in climate and clean energy policy.

A lot of insights and great overview of the electricity systems
