Request a sales quoteThe Sustainable Power Grid: Challenges, Applications and Case Studies provides a detailed breakdown of the different challenges faced with power grid modernization and presents a range of practical approaches to tackle these. With a strong focus on case studies and applications, the book offers extensive case study content to illustrate real-world concepts.
Beginning with an overview on the evolution of the traditional power system, chapters then discuss key issues surrounding extreme weather, power quality, and power converters. The book also outlines a quantitative risk-based framework for asset health assessment of overhead lines, alongside engineering and environmental considerations. Concluding with a deep-dive into energy storage, topics consist of energy storage system protection, condition monitoring, and emerging technologies.
Completely practical in nature, this is an essential resource for engineers in the electrical power industry, and offers students and researchers applied content in the latest power grid technologies.
- Discusses the major issues that face the modernization of the electric power grid, including new generation sources, environmental impacts, and energy storage
- Showcases real-world case studies and applications to bridge the gap between power grid theory and engineering
- Presents new approaches to power grid problems such as security, availability and reliability
