Abstract

The assets and working philosophy of individual electric utilities will, in large measure, be reflected by the modernization of their power systems during the next 20 years. This part, which concludes the article, addresses DC transmission, dispersed generation, distributed automation, use of computer information technology, and other factors worthy of continued consideration in the twenty-first century (grid stability, superconducting generators, energy storage, voltage sags, power system planning and operations, biological effects of EM fields)
