Renewable Energy in Power Systems : John Wiley & Sons, Inc. : 9781118649930 : 1118649931 : 30 Jan 2020 : An up to date account of renewable sources of electricity generation and their integration into power systems With the growth in installed capacity of renewable energy (RE) generation, many countries such as the UK are relying on higher levels of RE generation to meet targets for reduced greenhouse gas emissions. In the face of this, the integration issue is now of increasing concern, in particular to system operators.   This updated text describes the individual renewable technologies and their power generation characteristics alongside an expanded introduction to power systems and the challenges posed by high levels of penetrations from such technologies, together with an account of technologies and changes to system operation that can ease RE integration.  Features of this edition: Covers power conditioning, the characteristics of RE generators, with emphasis on their time v
