The increasing adoption of renewable energy is driven by the need to mitigate climate change and address environmental concerns. In this context, microgrids are emerging as an effective solution for improving energy reliability, sustainability, and resilience. However, the intermittency and uncertainty of renewable energy production significantly complicate efficient and reliable energy management. Robust and effective control methods are therefore essential in managing energy supply, and those control systems must be secure and resilient.
Cybersecurity and Control of Microgrids with Wind, PV, and Battery Systems seeks to address the opportunities and challenges presented by microgrid technology. The book covers energy management and planning as well as various applications and innovative technologies. Chapters address advances in Microgrid Energy Management Systems, renewable energy based DC microgrids, fuzzy decision-making, cyber-resilient adaptive control, model-in-the-loop testing, metaheuristic approach, cybersecurity, and in Part II, cryptocurrency mining and energy trading, green hydrogen systems, reverse osmosis desalination, as well as innovation ecosystems, and AI in energy management.
This thorough and thoughtfully-structured reference is intended for researchers, operators at electric utilities, and anyone involved with managing microgrids and their cybersecurity and control.
