"This shortform book presents key peer-reviewed research selected by expert series editors and contextualised by new analysis on the industrial history of delivering utilities. With contributions on the strengths and weaknesses of the creation of electricity networks, the organisation and performance of Britain's nationalised gas industry, and the environmental impact of delivering water and removing waste water, this volume provides an array of fascinating insights into industrial history. Of interest to business and economic historians, this shortform book also provides analysis and illustrative case-studies that will be valuable reading across the social sciences"--

The goals of restructuring of the power sector are competition and operating efficiency in the power industry that result in reliable, economical, and quality power supply to consumers. This comprehensive reference text provides an in-depth insight into these topics.Deregulated Electricity Structures and Smart Grids discusses issues including renewable energy integration, reliability assessment, stability analysis, reactive power compensation in smart grids, and harmonic mitigation, in the context of the deregulated smart electricity market. It covers important concepts including AC and DC grid modelling, harmonics mitigation and reactive power compensation in the deregulated smart grid, and extraction of energy from renewable energy sources under the deregulated electricity market with the smart grid.The text will be useful for graduate students and professionals in the fields of electrical engineering, electronics and communication engineering, renewable energy, and clean technologies.

Scheduling and Operation of Virtual Power Plants: Technical Challenges and Electricity Markets provides a multidisciplinary perspective on recent advances in VPPs, ranging from required infrastructures and planning to operation and control. The work details the required components in a virtual power plant, including smartness of power system, instrument and information and communication technologies (ICTs), measurement units, and distributed energy sources. Contributors assess the proposed benefits of virtual power plant in solving problems of distributed energy sources in integrating the small, distributed and intermittent output of these units. In addition, they investigate the likely technical challenges regarding control and interaction with other entities. Finally, the work considers the role of VPPs in electricity markets, showing how distributed energy resources and demand response providers can integrate their resources through virtual power plant concepts to effectively participate in electricity markets to solve the issues of small capacity and intermittency.
