PREFACE ELECTRICITY GENERATION USING WIND POWER:

This book is written for electrical engineers and students of electrical engineering. As a textbook it is pitched at the level of final-year undergraduates and postgraduates. 

There is no detailed coverage of the aeronautical and meteorological features of wind turbines. The book is not intended as a design handbook. 

Certain of the chapters contain end-of-chapter numerical problems, with the answers shown separately at the end of the book. 

Some of the material in chapters 2, 5, 6 and 7 is reworked from earlier publications by of one of the authors (WS).

 This material is acknowledged in appropriate places and the authors are grateful to the publishers of the earlier work for their permission to reproduce it.
