Preface

The world of alternate energy and the diverse fields of applications it provided served as impetus for me to start contemplating writing a book on distributed photovoltaic (DPV) grid transformers and related applications in fall 2008. That year we were working on a grant received from the Department of Energy (DOE) at the University of Hartford, Connecticut, to study the economic value stream generated by solar energy in the state of Connecticut. As one of the principal investigators of the technical aspects related to power systems and electrical power transformers used in harvesting solar energy, I took up the challenge to address the issues related to such transformers.

Subsequently, I applied for my third sabbatical leave in fall ...
