Every effort has its reward and Albacete's electrical engineer Ana Fernández has been rewarded for the hours she has spent developing her TFM for the Master in Renewable Energy of the UPCT.
The Spanish Association of Project Engineering (AEIPRO) has awarded the young woman's research, which consists of the integration of wind farms in the frequency control of a system made up of thermal and hydraulic plants.
According to Fernandez explains in the presence of its directors of work, Antonio Vigueras and Angel Molina, the objective of the work is to promote the integration of renewable energy within the electricity system and eliminate the dependence that exists with other more polluting energies.
"Right now, in Spain 25% of the electric power comes from renewable energies," says Ana Fernández, who reports that during her work she has carried out simulations of the integration of clean energies in the electric system of up to 50%, a fact superior to the objective that Spain has to fulfill in the year 2030.
The end of this type of work, says the teacher Angel Molina, is to investigate the combination of the properties of different renewable energies such as wind and hydro, so that through a synergy between these energy sources will facilitate their integration in the electricity grid and produce "cleaner energy, but without losing the advantages of the current electrical system".
Ana Fernández finished her degree in Electrical Engineering in 2016 at the University of Castilla-La Mancha;
granted a scholarship by Fundación Iberdrola España, he enrolled in the Master's Degree in Renewable Energy;
Now, he has obtained a contract for University Teacher Training to do his thesis also at the Polytechnic University of Cartagena.
In July he will present the results of his TFM in the 22nd edition of the International Congress of Project Engineering, in Madrid.
