Converter-Interfaced Energy Storage Systems

‘This is a timely and impressive book on an emerging and important topic. The comprehensive and in-depth overview of energy storage technologies, modelling, and dynamic simulation will make the book a valuable reference for practicing engineers and researchers working with the planning and operation of the future electric power system. The extensive list of references will be of great help for deepened studies.’ Göran Andersson, Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule Zürich‘Energy storage systems (ESS) are considered by many as the Holy Grail of the upcoming decarbonised future. From rooftop PV microsystems to giant pumped storage units, virtually all ESS are expected to be interfaced through power converters, for the sake of added flexibility and efficiency. This volume, co-authored by one of the most recognized experts in modelling, analysis and control of power systems dynamic phenomena, constitutes a self-contained and unique blend of general concepts, motivating factors and technical details, satisfying in this way the interests of a wide audience and filling an important gap in the technical literature.’ Antonio Gomez-Exposito, Universidad de Sevilla‘Excellent and timely material written by experienced authors! You must read this book.’ Jean Mahseredjian, Polytechnique Montréal
