The surge in renewable and distributed energy sources has posed significant challenges for smart power distribution network (SPDN). These challenges fall into two main categories: the unpredictability of renewable energy sources and the complexities introduced by numerous electrical devices and their interdependencies, affecting forecasting and operational performance. As the emphasis on SPDN's economic and environmental aspects grows, this book focuses on the vital themes of sustainability and cost-efficiency in SPDN forecasting, planning, and operation. It is structured into three key...

This book provides a detailed study of the active control methods for large-scale offshore wind farms connected via flexible high-voltage direct current (VSC-HVDC) transmission systems. Firstly, it introduces the basic structure and fundamental control of offshore wind farms connected via VSC-HVDC systems, and proposes a vector modeling method for them. Furthermore, it analyzes the fault characteristics of offshore wind farms connected via VSC-HVDC systems under different fault conditions, and proposes an active fault suppression method based on energy control. Finally, it introduces the...
