Small Scale Power Generation Handbook: Towards Distributed Energy Systemsis a technological assessment of small-scale power in one reference, covering various technologies that can be applied to construct small power generation, each with their unique characteristics of operation, maintenance, control and integration within the grid. Addressing how conventional generation can be jointly and efficiently operated with renewable energy sources in small scale power sources, the specific peculiarities of small-scale power are considered in terms of performance, availability and reliability, all in relation to the current trend of incorporating small and distributed power plants using different energy sources and fuels. This book provides technological advances along with the critical issues and economic performance of small size power plants of all types in a single source, making it relevant for professionals involved in the design of small-scale power generation systems and those interested in current energy system design. Compares the advantages and weaknesses of small-scale power production with a focus on new challenges for grid integrationCritically analyzes different technology issues surrounding operation, maintenance and controlIncludes small-scale power generation technology examples and global case studies | Small Scale Power Generation Handbook by Umberto Desideri, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
