The rapid growth of wind generation has many implications for power system planning, operation and control. Network development, voltage rise, protection, monitoring and control are connection problems common to all wind power generation.

'First published in 2007, this second edition offers substantially updated coverage and discussion of how wind power generation can be built into and operated with today's electricity supply systems. Catering for the broadest audience, there's a general introduction to wind turbine designs and technology, and their development. It also offers a primer on electrical power system theory along with the latest turbine generators and control systems in use, plus basic integration considerations such as voltage maintenance and power quality.'
