Presentation
Presentation
This curricular unit exhibits a different profile when compared to other lectured curricular units since its
nature is essentially practical, in a scenario of a specific problem, with precise objectives and
specifications for which students are expected to develop, design, optimize and validate tangible
solutions, through autonomous and collective research work.
As its designation implies, the areas of expertize where the projects take place are the areas of energy
and electronic power systems, although the covered spectrum extends also to all the remaining areas of
electro-technical engineering.

Objectives
Objectives
Defined objectives for the curricular unit of Projeto de Energia e
Potência I:
A - To develop the design capacity in electric power and power systems, in particular in the areas of
power systems, power electronics, industrial electronics, electronic actuators, electric machines, active
power filters, interface converters for renewable energy sources and the AC mains, and electrical
systems.
B - To stimulate the research work and analysis of existing solutions in the fields of energy and power
engineering, as well as to develop the students' critical analysis and result interpretation.
C - To develop students' sensitivity to the problems of power quality, energy efficiency and harmonic
distortion, among others.

Teaching methodologies and assessment
Teaching methodologies and assessment
Weekly there will be 3.5 hours of attendance lectures. In an initial phase, these times will have a more expositive character, during which the introductory aspects will be exposed as well as the detailed syllabus. Once all the projects are defined for each group (groups with no more than 3 students are recommended), the lecture time will be mainly oriented towards the monitoring and development of the each project.
The assessment is based on two parts:
- the performance obtained in the project report
- the performance obtained in the oral presentation of both works. This last component is individual for all students.
This curricular unit is categorized as having a strong laboratory component and is therefore subject to the specific assessment directives for CUs of this nature.
