Industry Reviews

"It is a great introduction to the Smart Grid, both knowledge and its practice."
- Xiaolin Ge, Black & Veatch, USA

"The first two chapters of this second edition provide an accurate history of how electric grid modernization has progressed in the last 10 - 15 years and lay out the current challenges and opportunities that customers, utilities, regulators, and new entrants to the electric supply and delivery industry are facing. It is helpful that economic, political, policy and business drivers for the changes have been explained."
