A new edition in two volumes of the systematic and comprehensive reference on metaheuristic methods for power systems with distributed renewables, which offers MATLAB-based software, with revised and new chapters.

This work supports the goal of achieving affordable and clean energy, with a focus on low income and remote communities. Chapters cover deployment of solar systems, small wind turbines, run-of-river hydropower, storage, water desalination, and case studies.

This comprehensive reference on the urban energy transition covers the technologies available for upgrading urban power grids, which will enable them to work with distributed renewable power and varying loads.

The hands-on review of islanding phenomena in electricity grids. Chapters cover definitions and principles of grid types and islanding, causes of formation, operation and stability, network restoration, detection of islanding, grid and plant protection, modelling and simulation, and practical examples.

The new edition of this reference on fuzzy logic for energy systems offers a review of fuzzy logic, and examples in Matlab-Simulink. The new edition covers new topics like shading in PV, and day-ahead estimation of sun and wind data.

Using PV modules on top of agricultural fields offers a twofold advantage; generating clean energy and shielding crops. This systematic and comprehensive book provides an overview of agrivoltaics, covering technology as well as social, ecological, economic and regulatory aspects.

This structured monograph conveys the use of AI in managing emerging power systems with distributed renewables. Coverage includes electric machine fault diagnosis, reliability control, active distribution, and management of energy systems. Numerous examples help readers understand the principles.

This concise overview covers decentralised self-organising units in smart grids. These will help keep future smart grids operational in the face of numbers of distributed intermittent generators and loads overwhelming traditional IT. Applications include economic dispatch, voltage control, and quality monitoring.
