To address the pressing need for an up-to-date and comprehensive treatment of the subject, Kim, Sood, Jang, Lim and Lee have collaborated to produce this key text and reference.  Combining classroom-tested materials from North America and Asia, HVDC Transmission compactly summarizes the latest research results, and includes the insights of experts from power systems, power electronics,  and simulation backgrounds. The authors walk readers through basic theory and practical applications, while also providing the broader historical context and future development of HVDC technology.

Balancing theoretical instruction with practical application, HVDC Transmission delivers comprehensive working knowledge to power utility engineers, power transmission researchers, and advanced undergraduates and postgraduates in power engineering programs. The book is also a useful reference to for engineers and students focused on closely related areas such as renewable energy and power system planning.

This reference book provides a detailed discussion on the protection challenges that arise due to technological improvements in transmission and distribution systems to supply increasing power demand. The primary focus of this book is transmission line protection with FACTS devices connected to the line and islanding detection in an active distribution system i.e., microgrids.

First, a literature review on the protection of transmission lines in the presence of switching devices is presented. The following chapters then present commonly proposed modifications required in the power system to meet increasing power demands, commonly used existing protection schemes and their limitations in the presence of switching devices, and solutions to these limitations in protection schemes. Results from fault simulations using PSCAD/EMTDC and MATLAB are also included.

This book will be valuable to graduate students and practicing engineers alike for dealing with protection issues in transmission and distribution systems incorporating FACTS devices.

The book titled "Control Applications in Modern Power System - select proceedings of EPREC-2024" delves into in-depth discussions, case studies, and recent advancements within the burgeoning field of control systems. It specifically focuses on areas such as load frequency control, wide-area monitoring, control and instrumentation, optimization, intelligent control, energy management systems, and SCADA systems. The development of effective control strategies plays a pivotal role in managing reactive power and upholding voltage profiles, among other critical aspects. Readers stand to gain valuable insights, bolstering their knowledge and expertise in these domains. Furthermore, this book has the potential to inspire fresh and innovative ideas. Whether a newcomer, a researcher, or a seasoned professional, this book serves as an invaluable reference for all for staying abreast of the latest developments in control systems.
