„I highly recommend the very complete reference book Smart Grid Applications, Communications, and Security, edited by Lars T. Berger, Ph. D., and Krzysztof Iniewski, Ph. D., to any engineers, power utility executives, business leaders, policy makers, government officials, and engineering students who are seeking a useful overview of the various aspects of the smart grid and its impact. This book will provide the essential foundation to understanding the smart grid, and will lead to further more specialized research and study as well.“ (Blog Business World, 2012)
Smart grids represent what many believe to be the next big technological revolution since the internet. Governments are pumping large sums of money into smart grid research, development and deployments. With the potential to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, increase reliability of electricity supply, and increase the efficiency of our energy infrastructure, it is clear that the advancement of these smart grids is an important and inevitable conclusion. This text will provide insight into the power electronics sensing, monitoring and control technologies, as well as deeply exploring the communication aspects of smart grids.
