Electrical Energy Conversion and Transport

An interactive computer-based approach

Authors K. E. Holbert and G. G. Karady

Designed to support interactive teaching and computer-assisted self-learning, this second edition of "Electrical Energy Conversion and Transport" is thoroughly updated to address the recent environmental effects of electric power generation and transmission, which have become more important together with the deregulation of the industry. New content explores different power-generation methods, including renewable-energy generation (solar, wind, fuel cell) and includes new sections that discuss the upcoming Smart Grid and the distributed power generation using renewable-energy generation, making the text essential reading material for students and practicing engineers.
