Handbook of Smart Energy Systems
Description
This handbook analyses and develops methods and models to optimize solutions for energy access of industry and the general world population in terms of reliability and sustainability. It focuses on improving the performance measures of the energy systems. It brings together state-of-the-art research on reliability enhancement, intelligent development, simulation and optimization, as well as sustainable development of energy systems. It helps energy stakeholders and professionals learn the methodologies to improve the reliability of energy supply-demand systems, achieve a more efficient state of long term operations, deal with uncertainties in energy systems, and reduce energy emissions.
