Sumario:Wind and thermal power systems are becoming a significant source of energy in our energy resource mix today. It is essential these systems are reliable, safe, and secure. Precise engineering design is required to insure these new power systems meet these requirements. In particular, interconnected systems with existing utility power systems must operate in synchronism and improve overall quality of the electrical power grid. This textbook is intended to identify and explain engineering procedures for the design and operation of renewable energy systems. The first chapters include a review of conventional electrical power systems as implemented in the United States and common to all electrical systems throughout the world. Several other types of renewable energy systems are introduced. The heart of the textbook is focused on the design of interconnected and stand-alone wind and thermal systems. Battery storage is becoming an integral part of renewables, and a significant portion of the textbook is dedicated to energy storage for stand-alone and back-up power systems. Economics considerations are included as an essential part of the engineering design process.
