A concise treatise on the modelling, technology and deployment of distributed small wind systems, covering VAWT and HAWT as well as ducted turbines in different situations including smart grids and offers a case study.

The purpose of this guide is to provide designers, installers, and practitioners with a clear understanding of the requirements and typical modes of operation for a prosumer's electrical installation (PEI).

Demand response (DR) describes controlled changes in the power consumption whose role is to better match the power demand with the supply. This reference, written by an international team of experts from academia and industry, covers the principles, implementation and applications of DR.

This book covers the very latest in theory and technology for Wireless Power Transfer (WPT), for both coupling as well as radiative WPT. It describes the theory as well as the technology and applications.

Electric and hybrid vehicles have been globally identified to be the most environmental friendly road transportation. Energy Systems for Electric and Hybrid Vehicles provides comprehensive coverage of the three main energy system technologies of these vehicles - energy sources, battery charging and vehicle-to-grid systems.

The transformation of the electricity sector is highly complex, including integration of large shares of renewables, storage, forecasting and modelling, biofuels, and electricity markets. This book provides clarity on the interlinked processes of the transformation towards 100 percent renewable power.

Smart roads are road infrastructures with integrated structural materials, sensors, information centres, and energy systems. The goals are extending service life and performance, reducing safety risks, and improving service quality. This book brings together the latest research into technologies for novel and smart road infrastructures.

This book discusses the connection of generation to distribution networks and then moves on to consider how sustainable generation can be fully integrated into the operation of the power system.
