"This book would be a wonderful reference for power system engineers and designers working with UHV transmission systems. It provides an excellent record of the lessons learned in China, gained from the many projects constructed over the last 13 years. It has very good technical details and contains a wealth of information. Any power engineer interested in UHV transmission will be interested in this book." -IEEE Electrical Insulation Magazine
UHV Transmission Technology enables power system employees and the vast majority of those caring for UHV transmission technology to understand and master key technologies of UHV transmission. This book can be used as a technical reference and guide for future UHV projects. UHV transmission has many advantages for new power networks due to its capacity, long distance potential, high efficiency and low loss. Development of UHV transmission technology is led by infrastructure development and renewal, as well as smart grid developments, which can use UHV power networks as the transmission backbone for hydropower, coal, nuclear power and large renewable energy bases. UHV is a key enabling technology for optimal allocation of resources across large geographic areas, and has a key role to play in reducing pressure on energy and land resources.
