Communities for Clean Energy Justice and Equity in Grid Modernization
Description
Comprehensive blueprint to understand, develop, and implement clean energy initiatives and achieve energy justice and equity worldwide
Communities for Clean Energy Justice and Equity in Grid Modernization presents fundamental theories, technologies, and solutions for real-world problems in the operation and planning of clean, safe, resilient, and efficient energy communities that deliver energy justice and equity.
The initial chapters of the book focus on conceptual requirements, emphasizing the definition, structure, features, and challenges of promoting energy justice and equity through the coordinated operation of clean energy communities. Subsequent chapters explore potential technologies and systems to achieve these objectives, examining functionalities in modern energy grids, including self-healing systems, sustainable energy networks, and intelligent, multidimensional communities of agents.
Edited by a team of highly qualified experts, the book explores additional topics including:
- Decision-making tools for optimized operation and planning of multi-energy communities
- Holistic energy availability frameworks capable of dealing with changes and interactions in modern energy grids
- The role of artificial intelligence, machine learning, citizenship, and democracy in realizing energy justice and equity
- Hybrid transitional energy markets, energy policy strategies, and business models related to localization of energy technologies
- Energy storage and trading solutions, hybrid energy technologies, and grid-edge solutions
Communities for Clean Energy Justice and Equity in Grid Modernization is an essential reference on the subject for electrical, mechanical, civil, architectural, and environmental engineers, along with professionals working in power and energy utility companies and policy makers seeking a holistic understanding of the subject.
