Learning outcomes |
The overall objective of the curricular unit can be described as the understanding and study of the electricity sector organization, particularly in Portugal, and its operation from an economic perspective – to acquire knowledge on 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;
• 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, based on recent papers.
