Availability Information

We source books from suppliers in Australia and overseas. For books we don't currently have in stock, the time it takes to get them from our suppliers can vary widely - from a few days to a few months - so we check each book with each supplier to determine the expected time it will take to be supplied to us.

We then advise you accordingly. If the time taken to get any book is too long for you, you can let us know and we will cancel or adjust your order, and refund as required.

Energy systems are encountered in daily life, whether through smartphones, laptops or cordless tools. Cars using fossil fuels are being replaced with electric and battery powered drives, and storage solutions are being implemented to better integrate renewable energies into the grid. Energy Storage Systems introduces the different storage technologies available today. It begins with mechanical and electrical storage and describes in detail electrochemical storage technologies such as lead and lithium-ion batteries. However, this book aims to explain not only what storage technologies exist but also how these storage technologies are applied in storage systems. Therefore, this book provides a short introduction to requirements management and system engineering to explain how storage systems are designed. Furthermore, the book explains the most important power conversion techniques. The technologies presented are applied in many application examples throughout the book and range from solar power storage systems to battery supported mobile phone masts and commercial vehicles equipped with a hybrid drive system.

Reviews for Energy Storage Systems: System Design and Storage Technologies

An important book, with the great advantage of being developed out of an already taught course, on an exceptionally relevant topic. * Michael Kelly, University of Cambridge * Valuable and should be useful for a variety of audiences. * Angus Rockett, Colorado School of Mines * Meets an important and topical need. * Peter Rez, Arizona State University *
