The search for clean, renewable energy sources has yielded enormous
growth and new developments in these technologies in a few short
years, driving down costs and encouraging utilities in many
nations, both developed and developing, to add and expand wind and
solar power capacity. The first, best-selling edition of Wind and
Solar Power Systems provided the most complete and modern treatment
of renewable energy. This second edition continues the tradition by
offering updated and expanded coverage of this growing field. The
book begins with individual sections devoted to wind power and
solar photovoltaic technologies, their engineering fundamentals,
conversion characteristics, operational considerations to maximize
output, and emerging trends. The discussion of wind power includes
the theory of induction machine performance and operation as well
as generator speed control, while the solar PV section includes
array design, environmental variables, and sun-tracking methods.
This edition includes two chapters devoted to new and specialized
technologies. The third section explores large-scale energy storage
technologies, overall electrical system performance, and total
plant economy while the final section explores ancillary power
systems derived from the sun. Focusing on the complete system
rather than on a single component, Wind and Solar Power Systems:
Design, Analysis, and Operation, Second Edition offers the most
comprehensive reference to all aspects of modern renewable energy
systems.
