Dynamics and Control of Electric Transmission and Microgrids cover

A guide to the latest developments in grid dynamics and control and highlights the role of transmission and distribution grids

Dynamics and Control of Electric Transmission and Microgrids offers a concise and comprehensive review of the most recent developments and research in grid dynamics and control. In addition, the authors present a new style of presentation that highlights the role of transmission and distribution grids that ensure the reliability and quality of electric power supply.

The authors — noted experts in the field — offer an introduction to the topic and explore the basic characteristics and operations of the grid. The text also reviews a wealth of vital topics such as FACTS and HVDC Converter controllers, the stability and security issues of the bulk power system, loads which can be viewed as negative generation, the power limits and energy availability when distributed storage is used and much more.  This important resource:

  • Puts the focus on the role of transmission and distribution grids that ensure the reliability and quality of electric power supply
  •  Includes modeling and control of wind and solar energy generation for secure energy transfer
  • Presents timely coverage of on-line detection of loss of synchronism, wide area measurements and applications, wide-area feedback control systems for power swing damping and microgrids-operation and control

Written for students of power system dynamics and control/electrical power industry professionals, Dynamics and Control of Electric Transmission and Microgrids is a comprehensive guide to the recent developments in grid dynamics and control and highlights the role of transmission and distribution grids that ensure the reliability and quality of electric power supply.

This textbook is one of the first on Power System Dynamics, Control and Stability to integrate in a straightforward and illustrative way the recently introduced modern power system components, such as Renewable Energy Sources (RES), converter interfaced generating sources, FACTS, energy storage devices, and wide area measurement systems (WAMS), in the same, common and well defined framework with the more conventional component, such as Synchronous Generators. - C.
