Self-organized Operation and Stability Control of Electronized Power Networks

This book gives a comprehensive and in-depth introduction to the development of advanced self-organized control and synchronization stability of electronized power systems from voltage amplitude-frequency dynamics. It presents modeling method from the amplitude-frequency dynamic perspective, oscillation suppression control, transient synchronous stability and self-organized operation of the electronized power systems. For each topic, a theoretical introduction and overview are backed by very concrete programming examples that enable the reader to not only understand the topic but to develop microgrid simulation models.

This book will serve as an invaluable tool for researchers, engineers, and designers in the field of the electronized power systems who are involved in the cooperative control of high renewable based power converter networks.
