The technologies, case studies, and applications are presented from the perspective of engineering consultants who participate in major grid-related disasters and perform detailed forensic investigations that support the evolution of sustainable power quality.
Chapters discuss key issues surrounding extreme weather, power quality, new technologies, and power converters. This book also outlines a quantitative risk-based framework for asset health assessment of overhead lines, along with 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 a valuable resource for engineers in the electrical power industry and offers students and researchers applied content in the latest power grid technologies.
- Discusses major issues that face the modernization of the electric power grid, including new generation sources, safety, 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
