This derivative volume stemming from content included in our seminal Power Electronics Handbook takes its chapters related to renewables and establishes them at the core of a new volume dedicated to the increasingly pivotal and as yet under-published intersection of Power Electronics and Alternative Energy. While this re-versioning provides a corollary revenue stream to better leverage our core handbook asset, it does more than simply re-package existing content. Each chapter will be significantly updated and expanded by more than 50%, and all new introductory and summary chapters will be added to contextualize and tie the volume together. Therefore, unlike traditional derivative volumes, we will be able to offer new and updated material to the market and include this largely original content in our ScienceDirect Energy collection. Due to the inherently multi-disciplinary nature of renewables, many engineers come from backgrounds in Physics, Materials, or Chemical Engineering, and therefore do not have experience working in-depth with electronics. As more and more alternative and distributed energy systems require grid hook-ups and on-site storage, a working knowledge of batteries, inverters and other power electronics components becomes requisite. Further, as renewables enjoy broadening commercial implementation, power electronics professionals are interested to learn of the challenges and strategies particular to applications in alternative energy. This book will bring each group up-to-speed with the primary issues of importance at this technological node. This content clarifies the juncture of two key coverage areas for our Energy portfolio: alternative sources and power systems. It serves to bridge the information in our power engineering and renewable energy lists, supporting the growing grid cluster in the former and adding key information on practical implementation to the latter. Provides a thorough overview of the key technologies, methods and challenges for implementing power electronics in alternative energy systems for optimal power generation Includes hard-to-find information on how to apply converters, inverters, batteries, controllers and more for stand-alone and grid-connected systems Covers wind and solar applications, as well as ocean and geothermal energy, hybrid systems and fuel cells

This book presents a nice Graphical User Interface based approach for solving electrical power system fault analysis problems. MATLAB, flagship software for scientific and engineering computation, is used for this purpose. Examples and problems from various widely used textbooks of power system are taken as reference so that results can be compared. This takes into account the fresh students having no idea about the course and can alone be used as a textbook. Help file is also provided with every module of the software keeping in mind that the software can be used as alternative to any textbook. It has been prepared for anyone who has little or no exposure to MATLAB. The programs were written in MATLAB 6 and are made compatible with most releases of MATLAB. The purpose of this book is to develop a fundamental idea about the power system fault analysis among the undergrads so that they can develop their own skills and aptitudes for solving real world power engineering fault analysis problems. Undergraduate students in electrical engineering having background of electrical machines and matrix algebra, who are interested in power system analysis, are encouraged to take a look.
