Page iii Series Introduction Power engineering is the oldest and most traditional of the various areas within electrical engineering, yet no other facet of modern technology is currently undergoing a more dramatic revolution in both technology and business structure. A revolution of innovation and invention, including automation, custom power devices, intelligent appliances, operations optimization software, and more, is extending the capabilities of electric utility systems far beyond their traditional capabilities. But nothing among these new technologies is as exciting, or has as much potential to truly create a revolution in the design, operation, and retail sales of electric energy, as distributed generation. The ability for homeowners, businesspersons, and industrial plant managers to produce electric power at their sites, rather than buy it "ready made" from a vast utility system, will effect a fundamental change in the electric power industry's technology, organization, and way of doing business. In company with de-regulation and its creation of Competition in the production and sale of electric power, distributed generation will help create technological, as well as commercial, competition at the retail level. This competition will drive experimentation and improvement in both the electric utility system field and the distributed generation arena. More important, it will meld the two resources into one distributed power technology. Used jointly rather than as independent, competing disciplines, and perhaps combined in very non-traditional ways, distributed generation and electric power systems together can provide better

Page iv service at lower cost than either can alone. Distributed generation may be the best thing that has happened to the electric power industry in decades, providing it with new capabilities that make electric power more valuable and capable of meeting a wider range of our civilization's energy needs than ever before.
