Summary:

"Modern Electricity Systems: Engineering, Operations, and Policy is a book about fundamentals, or a 'Toolbox' of how electricity is generated, financed, regulated, rationed, and stored. Without these pragmatic and technical 'tools', the onward social issues can only be discussed and advocated for, but not solved. The authors, each working professionals (and lecturers) with global experience in real-world applications, focus on what is happening right now, and what might happen in the next ten years. Their aim is to prepare graduate students for a career in policy, engineering, and operations for the next decade; the leaders of the future need to embrace these three critical areas and to understand how each impacts on the other. In addition, energy poverty and social justice are current issues that are of interest to environmentalists, governments, NGOs and those working in developing regions throughout the world."-- Provided by publisher.
