Paperback. Condition: New. De Alvarez discovers a neglected argument in Machiavelli's masterpiece that encompasses much more than the education of a prince for the salvation of Italy.

Simultaneously, customers and communities are poised to place increasing demands on distribution grids and utilities in the face of mounting technical, weather, and cybersecurity challenges. Smart Grid Hype and Reality asks provocative questions about massive grid investments in light of the demands and challenges, and presents definitive research on smart grid capabilities, costs, benefits, drivers, and limiters in typical and ideal case scenarios. It is designed to help utilities, regulators, customers, and other stakeholders understand available technologies and the industry systems - utility, customer, and regulatory/governance - that ultimately determine the value delivered by distribution grids and utilities. Leaders (community, regulatory, utility) can use this information to anticipate the type of grids and utilities needed to meet society's future needs, and develop the technical, organizational, market, and compensation plans most likely to help them realize their visions.
