The restructuring of the electric utility industry has generated the need for a mechanism that can successfully coordinate the different entities in a power market, enabling them to communicate effectively and efficiently, and to perform optimally and reliably. "Power System Protection and Communications" is an important book to primarily address the fundamental issues on electrical protection which is essential in understanding the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity.There is always a need to provide education in the theory and practice of protection engineering, for engineers and technical personnel, because of its importance in design and operation of the power system. The definitions of the individual components of distributed functions are presented in detail, including the different possible allocation of sub-functions and functional elements in physical devices. Secondly, the book examines in detail the importance of communication between power systems-discussing relevant issues such as the protocols, middleware, communication architecture, information embedded power systems and fibre optic network infrastructure.

This book brings together state-of-the-art advances in intelligent data analytics as driver of the future evolution of PaE systems. In the modern power and energy (PaE) domain, the increasing penetration of renewable energy sources (RES) and the consequent empowerment of consumers as a central and active solution to deal with the generation and development variability are driving the PaE system towards a historic paradigm shift. The small-scale, diversity, and especially the number of new players involved in the PaE system potentiate a significant growth of generated data. Moreover, advances in communication (between IoT devices and M2M: machine to machine, man to machine, etc.) and digitalization hugely increased the volume of data that results from PaE components, installations, and systems operation. This data is becoming more and more important for PaE systems operation, maintenance, planning, and scheduling with relevant impact on all involved entities, from producers, consumer,s and aggregators to market and system operators. However, although the PaE community is fully aware of the intrinsic value of those data, the methods to deal with it still necessitate substantial enhancements, development and research. Intelligent data analytics is thereby playing a fundamental role in this domain, by enabling stakeholders to expand their decision-making method and achieve the awareness on the PaE environment. The editors also included demonstrated codes for presented problems for better understanding for beginners.
