Objectives
In this subject adequate knowledge of electrical engineering and areas that have application are acquired here. Students who pass this subject will be able to: CB6 Possess and understand knowledge that provides a basis or opportunity to be original in the development and / or application of ideas, often in a research context CB7 That students know how to apply the acquired knowledge and their ability to solve problems in new or little-known environments within broader (or multidisciplinary) contexts related to their area of ¿¿study CB8 That students are capable of integrating knowledge and facing the complexity of formulating judgments based on information that, being incomplete or limited, includes reflections on social and ethical responsibilities linked to the application of their knowledge and judgments CB9 That students know how to communicate their conclusions and the knowledge and ultimate reasons that support them to specialized and non-specialized audiences in a clear and unambiguous way CB10 That students possess the learning skills that allow them to continue studying in a way that will be largely self-directed or autonomous. -Know the principles of active smart grids and the integration of renewable energy sources in active distribution networks. -Know the infrastructure of electrical and communication networks: Power electronics, electrical storage systems. -Knowledge of the operation and control techniques of active networks: Stability, frequency-power control, voltage control, state estimation. -Knowledge of AMR automation and measurement systems in smart grids. -Know the measures of demand management and management of active distribution networks. -Capabilities to select the most appropriate components for each application within those commercially available. -Know how to operate smart grids with renewable energy. - Ability to design smart grid protection and control systems.
