Global Power Grids for Harnessing World Renewable Energy
peer reviewed The Global Grid advocates the connection of all regional power systems into one electricity transmission system spanning the whole globe. Power systems are currently forming larger and larger interconnections. Environmental awareness and increased electricity consumption leads more inv...
