Compare Smart Microgrids by Sasi K. Kottayil, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

This book addresses the need to understand the development, use, construction and operation of Smart Micro Grids (SMG). Covering selected major operations of SMG like dynamic energy management, demand response, demand dispatch, etc., it covers design and operational challenges of different microgrids with providing feasible solutions for system. Communication technologies and governing standards used in developing communication networks for realizing various smart services and applications in micro grid are presented. A communication architecture facilitating bi-directional communication for smart distribution/micro grid is brought out covering its design, development and validation aspects. Aimed at graduate, research students and professionals in power, power systems, and power electronics, this book:Covers a broad overview of the benefits, the operation requirement, standards and communication requirements for deploying microgrids in distribution systems. Explores issues related to planning, expansion, operation, type of microgrids, interaction among microgrid and distribution networks, demand response, and the technical requirements for the communication network. Discusses current standards and common practices to develop and operate microgrids. Describes technical issues and requirements for operating microgrids. Illustrates understanding of smart communication architecture and protocols. | Smart Microgrids by Sasi K. Kottayil, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
