Wind Energy Conversion System covers the technological progress of
wind energy conversion systems, along with potential future trends.
It includes recently developed wind energy conversion systems such
as multi-converter operation of variable-speed wind generators,
lightning protection schemes, voltage flicker mitigation and
prediction schemes for advanced control of wind generators.
Modeling and control strategies of variable speed wind generators
are discussed, together with the frequency converter topologies
suitable for grid integration. Wind Energy Conversion System also
describes offshore farm technologies including multi-terminal
topology and space-based wind observation schemes, as well as both
AC and DC based wind farm topologies. The stability and reliability
of wind farms are discussed, and grid integration issues are
examined in the context of the most recent industry guidelines.
Wind power smoothing, one of the big challenges for transmission
system operators, is a particular focus. Fault ride through and
frequency fluctuation mitigation using energy storage options are
also covered. Efficiency analyses are presented for different types
of commercially available wind turbine generator systems, large
scale wind generators using superconducting material, and the
integration of offshore wind and marine current farms. Each chapter
is written by a leader in the wind energy arena, making Wind Energy
Conversion System a valuable reference for researchers and students
of wind energy.

Stability Augmentation of a Grid-connected Wind Farm introduces
a comprehensive approach to stabilizing the power output from wind
farms, covering both fixed and variable speed wind turbine
generator systems. The book presents the different tools suitable
for application in wind farms, together with modeling and control
strategies. The book reports on output power and terminal voltage
fluctuation minimization, using the integration of energy storage
systems with power electronic converters. Transient stability
enhancement of the power systems is also discussed. Stability
Augmentation of a Grid-connected Wind Farm provides advanced tools
with detailed modeling and controller design, including extensive
simulation results.

The Smart Grid is a modern electricity grid allowing for
distributed, renewable intermittent generation, partly owned by
consumers. This requires advanced control and communication
technologies in order to provide high quality power supply and
secure generation, transmission and distribution. This book
outlines these emerging technologies. Topics covered include an
introduction to smart grid architecture; smart grid communications
and standards; measurement and sensing devices for smart grids;
smart transmission and wide area monitoring system; bad data
detection in smart grids; optimal energy management in smart grids;
communication and control for the smart grid; smart consumer
systems; importance of energy storage systems in smart grids;
control and optimization for integration of plug-in vehicles in
smart grids; multi-agent based control of smart grids; compressive
sensing for smart grid security and reliability; optimum placement
of FACTS devices in smart grids; security analysis of smart grid;
and smart grid security policies and regulations. With
contributions from prominent researchers in the fields of computer,
communication, and power engineering this book is essential reading
for researchers in power grids, as well as for advanced students
and practitioners.

A microgrid is a small network of electricity users with a local
source of supply that is usually attached to a larger grid but can
function independently. The interconnection of small scale
generating units, such as PV and wind turbines, and energy storage
systems, such as batteries, to a low voltage distribution grid
involves three major challenges: variability, scalability, and
stability. It must keep delivering reliable and stable power also
when changing, or repairing, any component, or under varying wind
and solar conditions. It also must be able to accept additional
units, i.e. be scalable. This reference discusses these three
challenges facing engineers and researchers in the field of power
systems, covering topics such as demand side energy management,
transactive energy, optimizing and sizing of microgrid components.
Case studies and results provide illustrative examples in each
chapter.
