The overall objective of the curricular unit can be described as the understanding and study of the electricity sector organization, particularly in Portugal, its control and its operation from an economic perspective – to acquire knowledge from the automatic generation control to the short-term operational planning. For this propose the objectives we want to reach are: • giving students an understanding of the main characteristics of a hydrothermal power system; • introducing methods that are used in modern control theory in the automatic generation control; • addressing the mathematical optimization methods, with adequate depth, and applying them to simple problems, but also demonstrating, when possible, its practical resolution in the utilities; • introducing the most current topics that emerged with the electricity sector restructuring.
