Smart Grids

Semester 2 · 45550 · Master in Energie-Ingenieurwissenschaften · 6KP · EN

The course and develops mainly the subjects of the operation and regulation of the national grid high voltage.
After outlining the international framework of regulatory boards (CEN, CENELEC, ETSI, IEC, UCTE, etc ...), it introduces the equations of three-phase lines with the propagation constant and the characteristic impedance.
It will explain then technological innovation on electric transmission and distribution, as well as the control system in real time. It will be explained the mechanisms to control voltage and frequency according to the request of reactive and active power. It will also expose the criteria for the protection of the transmission lines and moreover the problem of power quality and the characteristics of the free market.
