Abstract
Much has been written and discussed concerning the smart grid, but there has been little written concerning the intelligent systems that have been operating the existing grids or will operate the grid of the future. This book not only gives the reader the history of what has allowed our electric systems to operate so well today but shows one a glimpse of the future we can expect. Given that little has been written for either the student or the practitioner on this topic, this book provides the reader with an understanding of the function of supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA ) systems as well as the many systems they rely on to function in the manner we have grown to expect. The authors then move to innovations that are changing the power industry to a truly smart grid with the inherent opportunities and associated challenges that come with dramatic change. This book is a must have text on this subject. It provides not only students but those who deal with SCADA insight into the various technologies and systems that exist along with their differences—both strengths and weaknesses. Each chapter focuses on different aspects of this important topic.
