Description and contextualization of the subject
Smartgrids should prove to adequately work for tomorrow networks. This requires technical solutions supported by adequate data analysis and mining so that the future network able to face the new requirements, including the integration of renewable based generation, energy storage systems, electric vehicles, and demand response.Therefore, data mining techniques are introduced in this subject, including supervised and unsupervised classification algorithms applied to Smartgrids concepts. Furthermore, data based decision making will be also covered by means of mathematical optimization.

Ordinary call: orientations and renunciation
Group project:A group project will be carried out where the contents learned in the course will be applied. Each group will deliver a report and will make an oral defense of the work done.
Learning process:
Proposed exercises both face-to-face and non-face-to-face. The the exercises will be carried out individually or in groups.
Written exam:
Theoretical and practical questions that will evaluate the competences to be acquired in the subject.
Final grade for the ordinary call:
40% group project.
20% learning process.
40% written exam.
MINIMUM GRADE: To pass the course it is necessary that the grades of both the project and the written exam are at least 4 points out of 10. If these minimum grades are not obtained, the grade for the ordinary call will be a maximum of 4 (out of 10).
In any case, any student who does not take the written exam will have a grade of NOT PRESENTED.
Extraordinary call: orientations and renunciation
A written exam consisting of theoretical and practical questions that will evaluate the content of the course, including the content from the laboratory practices and group project.Final grade for the extraordinary call:
100% grade of the written exam
