A growing economy depends on generation of clean energy and the reliable, secure distribution of that energy. The Power Grid - Smart, Secure, Green and Reliable offers a diverse look at the traditional engineering and physics aspects of power systems, along with the issues affecting clean power generation, power distribution and the new security issues that could potentially affect the availability and reliability of the grid. The book looks at growth in new loads that are consuming over 1% of all the electrical power produced, and how combining those load issues of getting power to the regions experiencing growth in energy demand can be addressed. It also considers the policy issues surrounding transmission line approval by regulators and with forensic failure analysis of the generation or protection systems required for the new demand. With truly multi-disciplinary content including failure analysis of various systems, photovoltaic, wind power, quality issues with clean power, high-voltage DC transmission, electromagnetic radiation, electromagnetic interference, privacy concerns and data security this reference is relevant to anyone interested in the broad area of power grid stability. Discusses state-of-the-art trends and issues in power grid reliabilityOffers guidance on purchasing new technology or investing in new technologiesIncludes a technical document relevant to public policy that can serve all stakeholders to the same level of understanding of the technical issues facing a green, secure power grid INDICE: 1.
