The goal of this book is to describe the grid in layman terms and give you a thorough understanding of how it works. It focuses on the three pillars of the grid; generation, transmission, and distribution to show how they came together to power the world, and the tremendous change now happening as new technologies and renewable resources create a more decentralized system.  All aspects of the grid are covered including equipment, software systems, operations, regulatory, financing, and future challenges.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFeatures \u0026amp; Benefits:\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescription of the elements and organizations that make up the electrical grid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow the bulk power system generates electricity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow the transmission system carries electricity over long distances\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe process of delivery of electricity to consumers through the distribution grid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescription of the specialized equipment in the electrical grid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe core and advanced software systems that enable the electrical grid to function\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow a distribution utility operates day to day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe many types of regulatory agencies and how the utilities finance their operations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat's next for the electrical grid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58069267710326,"sku":"9781955578226","price":55.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/stand_36188293.jpg?v=1781194426","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781955578226-the-electrical-grid","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
