Offers textbook coverage, integrating power systems operations and economics
Uses an up-to-date approach, with effective methodologies to solve current power system operation problems
Enables students with limited background in power systems to comprehend both power system operation problems and electricity markets
Walks the reader through the trade-offs of economics vs. security, as operation problems move from day-ahead to several minutes prior to power delivery
Replaces "manual" calculations with the use of modern software, uses solved examples to introduce new concepts and exercises to test mastery of them
