Basics of Electrical systems

The course introduces the student to the knowledge of the operation of the whole sale electricity market in Italy and the management of energy supplies for the industries in the free market. The course prepares the student to understand the objectives of energy policies and the problems related to the integration of renewables in electrical systems, and to deal with the management of energy purchases on the free market, starting from knowledge of the supply chain, from the production to the final meter, through the analyses of the Italian and European markets, from the regulatory point of view and of the most recent trends of the fundamentals, up to the billing and the quality of the electrical service . In the course will be treated also the management of natural gas supplies for the industries. The student, therefore, learns the key notions behind energy management, in particular related to energy supplies both from the technical and normative point of view.

-Italian electrical system. Structure of the electrical supply: production, transmission, distribution and sale. Quality of the electrical service. Reactive energy. Structure of electrical billing. Analysis of the load curves. Energy eater.
-Whole sale electricity markets. Fundamental notions to understand the dynamics of the electric market in Italy and the interrelations between its different phases. Specialized regulation analysis. Simulation approaches of the energy markets, critical analysis of the historical market results based on the elaboration of public data. Investment assessment. Logic of electrical system planning.
-Risk Management, Traders strategies, sourcing and pricing. Commercial products. Types of traders: resellers, purchasing groups and consortia. Regulatory and contractual supply sector.
