About this book

Control and Optimization Methods for Electric Smart Grids brings together leading experts in power, control and communication systems, and consolidates some of the most promising recent research in smart grid modeling, control and optimization in hopes of laying the foundation for future advances in this critical field of study. The contents comprise eighteen essays addressing wide varieties of control-theoretic problems for tomorrow’s power grid. Topics covered include control architectures for power system networks with large-scale penetration of renewable energy and plug-in vehicles, optimal demand response, new modeling methods for electricity markets, cyber-security,data analysis and wide-area control using synchronized phasor measurements.

Reviews

From the reviews:

“This edited book, composed of contributions from leading researchers in power, control and communication systems, has three broad categories of Architectures and Integration, Modeling and Analysis, and Communication and Control. … The targeted audience for this book is graduate students in power and controlTas reference material. the book will be also of interest to researchers and engineers working in electric power industry.” (D. Subbaram Naidu, Amazon.com, April, 2014)
