Energy efficiency allows companies to improve their profits and become more sustainable, demanding top-notch tools to use in their day-to-day operations" 

Governments and companies involved in electricity supply around the world are aware of the need to optimize power generation, minimize service interruptions, reduce carbon emissions, and involve a higher percentage of energy from renewable sources. For this reason, traditional power grids are evolving towards a new type of grid based on three fundamental axes: distributed generation, automation and control, and information technologies to transmit and analyze all the data. Smart grids, and the deployment of the technologies that comprise them, will make it possible to manage energy flows more efficiently, adjusting more closely to the dynamics of changes in energy supply and demand. 

All of this has led to a demand from IT professionals for top-notch programs to specialize in this high-demand area. To meet this academic need, TECH has designed this postgraduate certificate in Electronic Energy Efficiency: Smart Grid, thanks to which the student will delve into the various technologies that make it possible to integrate and optimize the operation of renewable energy sources and storage devices, as well as manage their operation to reduce the costs of end-consumer bills. 

Smart meters, power electronics, electric vehicles and technological advances in information storage and analysis, for example, are just a few examples of technologies whose application is essential for the deployment of Smart grids. And, for this reason, this program also has a space for their knowledge.
