E-Books →Modern Electricity Systems Engineering, Operations, and Policy to address Human and Environmental Needs

With decades of experience in industry and academia behind them, the team of authors in Modern Electricity Systems offers a "toolbox" from which the reader will learn what is essential to make informed decisions. As such, this textbook provides an introduction to the fundamentals of how electricity is generated, financed, regulated, rationed, and stored – with consideration not just of the current status of these issues but a glance at what the next decade may hold. Without this basic level of comprehension, the growing global impact and social issues can be discussed and advocated for, but real change in this sector can only be achieved through understanding the systems.
