Smart Grid: Fundamentals of Design and Analysis presents fundamental analysis and design schemes for developing actual working smart grids, electrical grids that can monitor, predict and intelligently respond to the behavior or electric power suppliers and consumers connected to it in order to deliver reliable and sustainable electricity services as efficiently as possible. Readers will find all the guidance, tools and techniques needed to design smart grids that meet the needs of government, industry and consumers, including:
- Standards and requirements for designing essential devices, systems and products
- Automation and computational techniques to design adaptable smart grids
- Simulation tools for modeling smart grid performance
- Incorporation of renewable and sustainable energy sources
- Evaluation of different options for computational intelligence, communications technology and decision support.
Includes detailed examples of smart grid design and development strategies based on different community constraints and energy needs.
