This book illuminates how synchrophasors achieve the monitoring,
protection and control optimizations necessary to expand existing power
systems to support increasing amounts of renewable and distributed
energy resources. The authors describe synchrophasor techniques that can
provide operators with better resolution in capturing dynamic behavior
of the power grid. The resulting insights support improved real-time
decision making in the face of more generation and load uncertainty, as
well as interruptions caused by random acts of nature and malicious
attacks. Armed with the information in this cutting-edge resource, grid
planners and operators can make optimized, flexible, resilient power
systems a reality.
