Control of Power Inverters in Renewable Energy and Smart Grid

Control of Power Inverters in Renewable Energy and Smart Grid Integration, Hardcover by Zhong, Qing-chang; Hornik, Tomas, ISBN 0470667095, ISBN-13 9780470667095, Brand New, Free shipping in the US
The concepts of energy and sustainability may not at first seem to be complementary, but technological advances in power inverters used in integrating renewable energy and distributed generation (power generated from a source other than a central power plant, like rooftop solar panels) into an intelligent electric grid--routinely referred to as a smart grid--are important to a sustainable energy supply. Authors Zhong (The U. of Sheffield, UK) and Hornik (Turbo Power Systems Ltd., UK) explain that the initiative to integrate renewable energy into smart grids could be the "new frontier" for the smart grid endeavor. They address the issues and challenges inverter technologies present: power quality control, neutral line provision, power flow control, and synchronization. Th would be useful for engineers, researchers, as well as other professionals in the field, and graduate students in relevant fields of study. Co-published with IEEE.
