商品簡介
Traditional electricity distribution networks are ill-equipped to meet the challenges of a new generation of sustainable and renewable power now mandated by many governments and demanded by citizens. They were simply not designed to handle decentralized energy production from randomly located and intermittent energy sources like wind, solar, geothermal, and others. This book offers a comprehensive and thorough exploration of both theoretical and practical tools needed for a new "intelligent energy network," typically referred to as a smart grid. Topics include overviews of distribution networks and decentralized energy production, impacts of distributed generation on the electrical network, photovoltaic and wind turbine systems and grid integration, reliability, load control, fault detection and protection, power electronics, and virtual power systems for active networks. The book should particularly interest researchers and engineers involved in the development of the new, more flexible and reliable distribution system of the future. Editors Hadjsaid (director, IDEA, France), Sabonnadiere (emeritus, National Polytechnic Institute of Grenoble, France), and 26 authors contributed to the book.
