The Group of Studies, Teaching, Research and Extension in Advanced Power Technologies and Innovations in Systems and Smart Grids (aPTIs-SG2) has the following goals:
- To develop advanced research on relevant topics in the context of Smart Grids, considering principles of integrality, interoperability and sustainability;
- To develop advanced methodologies and technologies of computational analysis, modeling and simulation to represent the complexity of the phenomena inherent to intelligent electrical networks;
- To provide specialized training on technical, human and professional skills to make electrical engineers capable of planning, analyzing and operating future electric networks.
The group’s main activity areas are:
- Architecture and frameworks for the design / planning, operation and safety of intelligent electrical networks;
- Tools for analyzing performance / performance of intelligent electrical networks (operation, stability, quality, transients, economy, regulation);
- Sustainable integration of renewable energy sources, distributed generation and storage;
- Measurement (smart metering), monitoring, communication systems, security and computational intelligence in the context of intelligent electrical networks;
- Economic, regulatory and commercial modeling of the intelligent electric market considering the stakeholders;
- Teaching, Research, Extension with training and development of skills in advanced topics of intelligent electrical networks;
- Power electronics applied to high and medium voltage systems (transmission and distribution of electricity) and advanced equipment;
- Philosophy of research, technological development and innovation processes.
