"With the emergence of the smart grid at at different parts of the world, it is important to introduce Power System Analysis in a new way, both to power engineers as well engineers working in other related fields. For most power system studies, computer-based analysis becomes the way to go. This book, therefore, seeks to achieve this goal. In particular, the student needs to be introduced to technologies such as HVDC and FACTS. Another important aspect of the new grid is the introduction of alternative energy sources. This book seeks to introduce the student to these new developments."--Back cover.
