About this title

Synopsis

With the growth of renewable energy sources, microgrids have become a key component in the distribution of power to localized areas while connected to the traditional grid or operating in a disconnected island mode. Based on the extensive real-world experience of the authors, this cutting-edge resource provides a basis for the design, installation, and day-by-day management of microgrids.

Review

Microgrid Design and Operation is a practical guide full of deep expertise to help facilitate the design, implementation, and effective management of microgrids. As a member of the International Sustainable Campus Network (ISCN), The University of Genoa shares their real-world experiences from implementing the first low voltage Smart & Sustainable Microgrid in Italy. We recommend this resource to those seeking practical examples to successfully adopt microgrid technology and advance sustainability performance on campus. --Heather Vickery, Network Relations Manager, ISCN

The importance of fostering the technological evolution focused on renewable energy sources towards sustainability is of crucial interest. The role of universities in this process is essential. Successful planning of microgrids at university campuses, which is the main goal of the book, should considerably influence community engagement in making decisions on university-sponsored sustainable energy projects. The experience gained by Federico Delfino and his team proved that regional initiatives and good practices could boost national and international initiatives and enforce synergic effects focused on clean energy production and energy savings. --Artur Bartosik, Kielce University of Technology
