The Renewable Power Machine: Taking Solar and Wind From Expansion to Energy Infrastructure
Solar and wind have grown from alternative sources of electricity into significant components of power systems around the world. Their continued expansion increasingly depends on more than installing additional generation capacity. Forecasting, transmission, storage, operations and grid integration must develop alongside the generating assets themselves. This edition examines renewable power as an increasingly mature infrastructure sector, exploring solar and wind technology, hybrid projects, operations and the wider systems required to integrate variable generation reliably into large electricity networks.
Editor's Note
Renewable power changes character as it moves from individual projects toward a major component of electricity infrastructure. The challenge becomes not only generating clean electricity, but also integrating and operating that capacity effectively within the wider power system. This edition examines solar and wind through that larger perspective and explores how grids, forecasting, storage and operational capability become increasingly important as renewable penetration grows.
