Unregulated distributed energy sources such as solar roofs and
windmills and electric vehicle requirements for intermittent
battery charging are variable sources either of electricity
generation or demand. These sources impose additional intermittent
load on conventional electric power systems. As a result thermal
power plants whose generation is absolutely essential for any power
system are increasingly being used for cycling operations thus
increasing greenhouse gas emissions and electricity cost. The use
of secondary energy storage might be a solution. Various
technologies for storing electric energy are available; besides
electrochemical ones such as batteries, there are mechanical,
chemical and thermal means, all with their own advantages and
disadvantages regarding scale, efficiency, cost, and other
parameters. This classic book is a trusted source of information
and a comprehensive guide to the various types of secondary storage
systems and choice of their types and parameters. It is also an
introduction to the multidisciplinary problem of distributed energy
storage integration in an electric power system comprising
renewable energy sources and electric car battery swap and charging
stations. The 3rd edition has been thoroughly revised, expanded and
updated. All given data has been updated, and chapters have been
added that review different types of renewables and consider the
possibilities arising from integrating a combination of different
storage technologies into a system. Coverage of distributed energy
storage, smart grids, and EV charging has been included and
additional examples have been provided. The book is chiefly aimed
at students of electrical and power engineering and design and
research engineers concerned with the logistics of power supply. It
will also be valuable to general public seeking to develop
environmentally sound energy resources.
