Contents:
Integration of distributed energy resources in distribution power systems -- Operational aspects of distribution systems with massive DER penetrations -- Prediction of photovoltaic power generation output and network operation -- Prediction of wind power generation output and network operation -- Energy management systems for DERs -- Protection of DERs -- Lightning protections of renewable energy generation systems -- Distributed energy resources and power electronics -- AC/DC microgrids -- Stability problems of distributed generators -- Virtual synchronous generators and their applications in microgrids -- Application of DERs in electricity market.
Summary: Integration of Distributed Energy Resources in Power Systems: Implementation, Operation and Control covers the operation of power transmission and distribution systems and their growing difficulty as the share of renewable energy sources in the world's energy mix grows and the proliferation trend of small scale power generation becomes a reality. The book gives students at the graduate level, as well as researchers and power engineering professionals, an understanding of the key issues necessary for the development of such strategies. It explores the most relevant topics, with a special focus on transmission and distribution areas. Subjects such as voltage control, AC and DC microgrids, and power electronics are explored in detail for all sources, while not neglecting the specific challenges posed by the most used variable renewable energy sources.
