The teaching unit ELECTRIC POWER SYSTEMS is divided into two modules, namely POWER SYSTEMS MODELLING & CONTROL and POWER SYSTEMS MANAGEMENT.
In the first module, the main principles of power, frequency and voltage regulations are provided for traditional networks and microgrid. The second module describes the structure of the national electric power system, the electricity market and the different incentive mechanisms for high-efficiency cogeneration plants, renewable energy plants and energy communities; it also provides tools for carrying out business plan analyses in the energy field.
The teaching unit is designed to provide the theoretical and methodological skills necessary for the understanding of the most important problems of modern electrical power systems, with particular reference to the integration of renewable energy sources (RES) and the impact that the change in the characteristics of the generating units determines in the electrical network management. Skills are also provided to develop calculation models in the field of the electricity market and business plan analyses in the energy sector.
Students are strongly recommended to have a good knowledge of the basics of electric circuit theory, electric machines and energy systems.
