Synchronous Generator and Condensers Specification Mastery

From its first edition to present, the way energy is produced, transmitted and consumed has changed a lot; Electricity gained prominence thanks to renewables such as wind and solar, and gas assumed a middle term in relation to coal. As one can image, while taking a leap towards low emissions there are new challenges, one of which is grid stability, now critical to avoid large-scale blackouts. In this new context we added synchronous condensers, still on a didactic way supporting engineers, technicians, students, decision makers, energy and no energy professionals. The book is done after decades of global experience and provides a practical framework for understanding, evaluating, and selecting generators and condensers in a wide range of applications, it covers steam, gas, diesel, wind, solar, and biodigesters as well, completed by a high-level view on transmission systems. By connecting technical specifications with financial objective, this guide enables you to get versed to work in the energy sector, helps taking informed decisions to increase operational reliability and maximize return on investment independently from your technical background. Curios? More than welcome.
