Funding entity Endesa Generación S.A.

The aim of this project is the development of the system studies of the hydroeolic power plant of the El Hierro Island. These studies determine the operational limits of the different operating modes of the hydroeolic power plant of El Hierro without affecting the quality of the electric energy supply.

Research topics:
• *Steady-state: load flows, analysis of power system constraints, optimal load flows, voltage control ancilliary service,short-circuits, protections in transmission and ditribution networks
• *Stability: large disturbance stability, tuning of frequency loadshedding schemes, excitation control, small disturbance stability, tuning of power system stabilizers, identification of AVR and governor models
