Delve into the fundamentals of electrical production and master the operation of steam generators used for electric power generation with this unique program from TECH" 

In this course, the fundamentals of electricity production will be discussed in detail. Due to the large number of fuels that can be used, we will study their influence on the different thermodynamic cycles and how the planning of each of them affects the generation activity. 

Similarly, the characteristics of steam and how they influence the different processes to which it can be subjected to optimize the generation of electrical energy will be analyzed, as well as the operation of steam generators used for the production of electrical energy. 

It also discusses the impact of all the systems involved in steam production and how to improve their effectiveness and productivity. On the other hand, since steam generators are dangerous machines, it will be shown how to operate them safely and the different types of control to which they are subjected, as well as the components used to perform them. 

In addition, as it is a 100% online Postgraduate certificate, it provides the student with the ease of being able to take it comfortably, wherever and whenever they want. All you need is a device with internet access to take your career one step further. A modality in line with the current times with all the guarantees to position the professional in a highly demanded area in continuous change, in line with the SDGs promoted by the UN.
