Book Description
As demonstrated by recent major blackouts, power grids and their associated markets play a vital role in the operation of our society. Understanding how electric generation, transmission, and delivery systems interact and operate is paramount to guaranteeing reliable sources of electricity.
Electric Energy Systems offers highly comprehensive and detailed coverage of power systems operations, uniquely integrating technical and economic analyses. The book fully develops classical subjects such as load flow, short-circuit analysis, and economic dispatch within the context of the new deregulated, competitive electricity markets. With contributions from 24 internationally recognized specialists in power engineering, the text also presents a wide range of advanced topics including harmonic load flow, state estimation, and voltage and frequency control as well as electromagnetic transients, fault analysis, and angle stability.
A well-needed and updated extension on classical power systems analysis books, Electric Energy Systems provides an in-depth analysis of the most relevant issues affecting the blood-line of our society, the generation and transmission systems for electric energy.
Editorial Reviews
Review
“…[addresses]… very relevant contemporary topics in power system analysis and operation…could serve as an excellent reference source or as material for multiple short courses…topics related to power system analysis provide the necessary building blocks and foundational material that transition smoothly into concepts and tools used for power system operation. The chapters are well balanced in the amount of detail provided and also include several useful examples. …a welcome addition [that] complements more traditional textbooks in this area by providing an expert’s viewpoint on the relevant issues and intricacies associated with these topics. The development of the various power system operation topics in a market environment is particularly useful and highlights the rich experience of various experts who have conducted seminal work in this area.”
