Academic Press Risk-Based Energy Management: DC, AC and Hybrid AC-DC Microgrids

Product Description Risk-Based Energy Management: DC, AC and Hybrid AC-DC Microgrids defines the problems and challenges of DC, AC and hybrid AC-DC microgrids and considers the right tactics and risk-based scheduling to tackle them. The book looks at the intermittent nature of renewable generation, demand and market price with the risk to DC, AC and hybrid AC-DC microgrids, which makes it relevant for anyone in renewable energy demand and supply. As utilization of distributed energy resources and the intermittent nature of renewable generations, demand and market price can put the operation of DC, AC and hybrid AC-DC microgrids at risk, this book presents a timely resource. Review A guide to the challenges and solutions surrounding demand and supply in AC, DC and combination microgrids From the Back Cover Risk-based energy management: DC, AC and hybrid AC-DC microgrids Edited by Sayyad Nojavan, Noradin Ghadimi and Mahdi Shafieezadeh Utilization of distributed energy resources and the intermittent nature of renewable generations, demand and market price can put at risk the operation of DC, AC and hybrid AC-DC microgrids. These uncertainties can make the monitoring, control and operation of DC, AC and hybrid AC-DC microgrids for decision-makers and investors difficult. Risk-based energy management: DC, AC and hybrid AC-DC microgrids defines the problems and challenges of DC, AC and hybrid AC-DC microgrids and considers robust and risk-based scheduling to tackle them. This book looks at the intermittent nature of renewable generation, demand and market price with the risk to DC, AC and hybrid AC-DC microgrids, which makes it relevant for anyone in renewable energy demand and supply. Key Features: Discusses challenges and solutions of DC, AC and hybrid AC-DC microgrids Proposes robust scheduling of DC, AC and hybrid AC-DC microgrids under uncertain environment Includes modelling upstream grid prices, renewable resources and intermittent load in decision making of DC, AC and hybrid AC-DC microgrids About the Editors: Sayyad Nojavan, PhD, is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering, University of Bonab, Bonab, Iran.
