Wind Power in Power Systems

herausgegeben von Thomas Ackermann
As environmental concerns have focussed attention on the generationof electricity from clean and renewable sources, wind energy hasbecome the world's fastest growing energy source. The authorsdraw on substantial practical experience to address the technical, economic and safety issues inherent in the exploitation of windpower in a competitive electricity market. Presenting the readerwith all the relevant background information key to understandingthe integration of wind power into the power systems, this leadingedge text:
* Presents an international perspective on integrating a highpenetration of wind power into the power system
* Offers broad coverage ranging from basic networkinterconnection issues to industry deregulation and future conceptsfor wind turbines and power systems
* Discusses wind turbine technology, industry standards andregulations along with power quality issues
* Considers future concepts to increase the penetration of windpower in power systems
* Presents models for simulating wind turbines in powersystems
* Outlines current research activities
Essential reading for power engineers, wind turbine designers, wind project development and wind energy consultants dealing withthe integration of wind power systems into distribution andtransmission networks, this text would also be of interest tonetwork engineers working for power utility companies dealing withinterconnection issues and graduate students and researchers in thefield of wind power and power systems.
