World Scientific Set To Publish Electricity Generation Using Wind Power

World Scientific is set to publish Electricity Generation Using Wind Power
in November this year in conjunction with a worldwide focus on climate change and green energy.

Authored by Dr. William Shepherd from the University of Bradford, UK,
and Dr. Li Zhang from the University of Leeds, UK, this book deals with the use
of the wind as an energy source and is written for electrical engineers concerned
with the use of wind power for generating electricity. It incorporates some
meteorological features of international wind supply plus a survey of the past and
present wind turbines with technical assessment of the choice of turbine sites.
Detailed coverage is given to the different types of electrical generator machines
used and the electronic control devices employed in modern turbine systems with
devotion of full chapters to the integration of wind farms into established electrical
grid supply systems, and the environmental and economic aspects of wind
generation.

Commenting on the book, Dr. Li Zhang said, “With an increasingly
intensive need for clean and green energy, I am certain that this book will provide
useful insights for those in the field who are dealing with electricity generation.”
Electricity Generation Using Wind Power retails at US$80. More
