Schneider Electric: Energy utility

I worked in several factories in Argentina and other countries, from the installation of energy and energy quality meters properly configured as indicated by the energy regulator  CAMMESA in Argentina.

As well  I did the installation of the Energy monitoring software from Schneider Electric, PME. I was an engineer of a Systems integrator certified by Schneider Electric as EcoXpert Critical Power Master, involved in energy efficiency projects analysing data and making proposals to improve industrial plants electrical systems and others (water, gas and air compress).

• Advanced configuration and data analysis: custom reports, trends, dashboards, KPIs and graphs.
• Installation, maintenance and backup of SQL Server Express and Standard databases in independent and distributed architectures as Data engineer. ETL
• Autocad drawings of high, medium and low voltage electrical plans.• Advanced configuration and data analysis: custom reports, trends, dashboards, KPIs and graphs.

I have advanced experience in PME modules: Web, Management Console, Designer and Vista, as well as ION SETUP and SQL database.

UTE

UTE is the National Administration of Electrical Power Plants and Transmissions is the state company for the production, supply and distribution of electrical energy in Uruguay.

In this client I worked with more than 50 energy quality measurement equipment and customized screens specialized in showing solar, wind and biomass energy generation data for the entire country of Uruguay. Also I worked in One-Line diagram analysis and power quality events. The harmonics and worked on the growth of the system database were analyzed in detail, making a deep analysis of the measurement variables of the meters. On the other hand, I worked on diagrams that visually show energy generation by technology and by sector, using maps and other dashboards.

Sincrosur

The client Sincro Sur has the project TRANSBA Monte Hermoso 132/33/13.2 KV transformer station in the province of Buenos Aires, Argentina, whose energy comes from wind mills. Energy quality meters are provided to analyze the energy generated, I worked on one-line diagrams to make screens, dashboards, personalized reports, alerts, real-time trends, energy quality and database growth analysis. I also worked on an SMTP service, for automatic sending of reports and alerts by email.

Seaboard

Seaboard is in Salta, a province in the north of Argentina amd It produces table sugar and industrial sugar, on the other hand it uses waste to produce biomass energy. Seaboard has an Electrical Cogeneration Plant that operates with an installed capacity of 48MWh, 16MWh are used to supply energy to the agro-industrial complex and 32MWh is the installed capacity to contribute to the National Interconnected System of the Compañía Administrativa del Mercado Mayorista Eléctrico S.A. (CAMMESA), which benefits, among others, the cities of Tartagal, Orán, Hipólito Yrigoyen and Pichanal in Salta. It also produces bioethanol fuel. I worked on the creation of one-line diagrams, dashboards, trends, personalized reports, automatic sending by SMTP, energy quality analysis.

Pampa Energia, Genelba Thermoelectric Power Plant

Pampa Energia is an important company in charge of energy generation and distribution in the country of Argentina. I worked for the Genelba Thermoelectric Power Plant (“CTGEBA”), which is located in the district of Marcos Paz, province of Buenos Aires, a strategic place as it is only 1 kilometer away from the Ezeiza transformer station, a reference node of the MEM. ("Wholesale Electricity Market") for the provision of energy to the highest demand in the country. CTGEBA consists of two CC ("combined cycle"), one of 684 MW, composed of two gas turbines of 223 MW each and a steam turbine of 239 MW. The second CC is made up of a gas turbine called Genelba Plus with 182 MW of power, another gas turbine of 188 MW, and the steam turbine of 199 MW.

CTGEBA is one of the largest thermal power plants in the country, with a total power of 1,253 MW, 2.9% of the Argentine park. From 2000 to 2022, the historical average annual generation was 5,294 GWh, with a maximum of 8,594 GWh in 2021 and a minimum of 3,438 GWh in 2001. In this thermoelectric plant, make the one-line diagrams, after analyzing the original electrical plans and understanding where the power quality meters are to analyze their data, to later work on the power quality graphs and events.
