1st Edition
by Marc Boillot (Author)
The dynamic of the Energy
Transition is engaged in many region of the World. This is a real
challenge for electric systems and a paradigm shift for existing
distribution networks. With the help of "advanced" smart technologies,
the Distribution System Operators will have a central role to integrate
massively renewable generation, electric vehicle and demand response
programs. Many projects are on-going to develop and assess advanced
smart grids solutions, with already some lessons learnt. In the end, the
Smart Grid is a mean for Distribution System Operators to ensure the
quality and the security of power supply.
Several books have been
written to provide a definition of Smart grids, explore the different
technical evolution needed and explain / analyse what would be the
benefits. All those books are conducted on theoretical basis by
academics and strategy consultants. This new book will propose a
complementary and singular approach based on a practical experience from
DSO's.
