As renewable energy sources have reached grid parity in many countries, the key to further growth of the share of renewables in the power mix is their integration with the power system. This requires a number of technical developments, for example in power electronics, to meet the need for increased flexibility and rapid dispatch. This book explores the new approaches to meet these challenges, such as increasing interconnection capacity among geographical areas, hybridization of different distributed energy resources and building up demand response capabilities.

Key to the further growth of shares of renewables is their integration with the existing grid system including EV and sector coupling. This in turn requires technical developments to enable flexibility and dispatch. Approaches to meeting these challenges include hybridization of different distributed energy resources, forecasting and control, storage and demand response, and modelling. Technological advances are also being accompanied by changes in business models.
