商品簡介
Microgrids, such as those connecting smaller villages, university campuses, or other entities smaller than cities that can accommodate their own generation and operate independently from the larger grid, are gaining importance. This book describes the latest technology in microgrids, considers the perspectives of economics, environment and energy policies, covers microgrids for cold regions, and takes a look at future trends. It gives a complete overview of the latest technology around the world, and the interrelation with clean energy systems.
Topics covered include an overview of clean energy systems; control and energy management systems in microgrids; storage systems for microgrids; microgrid reliability and electricity quality; clean generation in microgrids; communication network security and privacy; microgrids economics and policy. It includes case studies from Japan, Europe, US and developing countries. Researchers, practicing engineers and students working in microgrids and clean energy production will find this an invaluable resource.
