Interconnected Modern Multi-Energy Networks and Intelligent Transportation Systems
A timely introduction to the revolutionary technologies reshaping the global energy market
The search for more efficient and sustainable ways to meet society’s energy requirements has driven recent technological innovation on an unprecedented scale. The energy needs of a growing population coupled with concerns about climate change have posed unique challenges that necessitate novel energy technologies. The transition of modern energy grids towards multi-energy networks, or MENs, promises to be a fundamental transformation in the way we energize our world.
Interconnected Modern Multi-Energy Networks and Intelligent Transportation Systems presents an overview of the foundational methodologies and technologies underlying MENs and the groundbreaking vehicle systems that bring them together. With the inclusion of transformative technologies from radically different sectors, the content covered in this book will be of high value for researchers interested in future energy systems.
Readers will also find:
- In-depth examination of the process of switching from conventional transportation systems to modern intelligent transportation ones
- Detailed discussions of topics including self-driving vehicles, hybrid energy technologies, grid-edge, and more
- The introduction of a holistic, reconfigurable system adaptable to vastly different conditions and forms of network interaction
Interconnected Modern Multi-Energy Networks and Intelligent Transportation Systems is useful for researchers in electrical, mechanical, civil, architectural, or environmental engineering, as well as for telecommunications researchers and for any industry professionals with an interest in energy transportation.
