About the Book

Electric Power Systems has been an essential book in power systems engineering for over thirty years. Bringing the content firmly up-to-date whilst still retaining the flavor of Weedy's extremely popular original, this Fifth Edition has been revised by experts Goran Strbac and Nick Jenkins. This wide-ranging text still covers all of the fundamental power systems subjects but is now expanded to cover increasingly important topics like climate change and renewable power generation. Updated material includes an analysis of today's markets and an examination of the current economic state of power generation

About the Author

This is a revision of the work by the late B.M Weedy of University of Southampton and B.J. Cory of Imperial College, London Nick is a Professor at the Cardiff School of Engineering. He is also the Director of the Centre for Integrated Renewable Energy Generation and Supply at Cardiff University and is a special advisor to a House of Commons Select Committee Goran is Professor of Electrical Energy Systems at Imperial College, London. He is also the Director of the DTI Centre for Distributed Generation and Sustainable Electrical Energy, the Convener of CIGRE International Working Group on Economics of Integration of Distributed Generation and a member of the Executive Team of the IEE Professional Network on Power Trading and Control.
