Power Grid Resiliency for Adverse Conditions
Written by a leading expert in the field, this practical book offers a comprehensive understanding of the impact of extreme weather and the possible effects of climate change on the power grid. The impact and restoration of floods, winter storms, wind storms, and hurricanes as well as the effects of heat waves and dry spells on thermal power plants is explained in detail. This book explores proven practices for successful restoration of the power grid, increased system resiliency, and ride-through after extreme weather and provides readers with examples from super storm Sandy. This book presents the effects of lack of ground moisture on transmission line performance and gives an overview of line insulation coordination, stress-strength analysis, and tower insulation strength, and then provides readers with tangible solutions. Structural hardening of power systems against storms, including wind pressure, wood poles, and vegetation management is covered. Moreover, this book provides suggestions for practical implementations to improve future smart grid resiliency.

Power Grid Resilience
This book provides comprehensive coverage of the resilience and reliability of power grids. It begins with the definition and theory of power grid resilience and then extends to cover the full spectrum of power grid resilience, ranging from planning to operation including system hardening, mitigation, and restoration. Practical case studies on both the bulk power system and distribution networks are included to illustrate how adaptive measures can be taken to improve the grid resilience against large-scale events. Power Grid Resilience: Theory and Applications is a state-of-the-art guide that is essential reading for practicing engineers, researchers, and scientists working in the power and energy industry. The book is also useful as a reference for undergraduate and graduate students studying power systems.
