Objectives

To enable the students to cope with the main issues related to the optimized operation of electric power systems

Learning outcomes and competences

The students should be able to:
Cover the fundamental aspects of the operation of interconnected power systems (CDIO 4.3, 4.4, 4.6).
Conceptualize and formulate the different problems associated to the efficient technical and economic management of a Power System (CDIO 1.3, 1.4, 2.3, 2.5, 4.3, 4.4, 4.6).
To know and apply optimization methods and computational tools to support the operation of transmission and distribution networks (CDIO 2.1, 2.3, 3.2, 3.3).

Working method

Presencial

Program

Economic management of power systems. Unit commitment. Economic Dispatch. Hydrothermal coordination. Consideration of the transmission network. Reactive power dispatch. Optimal power flow. Generating and transmission system. Operation scenarios and interconnections. Security of supply. Ancillary services. Dispatch of distribution networks. Network reconfiguration.

Eligibility for exams

Successful completion of the two assignments (at least 8 out of 20).

Calculation formula of final grade

Written exam, 50%
Assignments, 50%
(Minimum of 8/20 in both components)

Examinations or Special Assignments

Assignments to be developed during classes and during the time of autonomous work.

Special assessment (TE, DA, ...)

All the students must complete the assignments. Assignment reports must be delivered up to the same deadlines fixed for the other students. In the special cases defined by NGA, an additional laboratory exam will be required.

Classification improvement

A second opportunity for the exam is available.
Distributed evaluation cannot by its nature be improved.
