Sommario/riassunto

"Gives a power-system viewpoint contrary to the energy viewpoint presented in many other books on DG Emphasis on systematic and transparent calculation methods allowing a quantification of the amount of DG that can be integrated at a certain location of the grid or in the grid as a whole Provides an overview of the different energy sources, with emphasis on windpower, solar power and CHP (Combined Heat & Power) Provides a general overview of the different methods available to allow more DG to be connected to the grid, ranging from classical methods like building more lines, to advanced methods like power-electronics control, and even future methods like smartgrids and microgrids"--
