One concern some observers raise about the growth of inverter-based resources, such as solar, wind, and battery storage, supplying the power grid is that they don’t provide inertia. Inertia has ...

Massive integration of inverter-based renewable energy systems has been displacing conventional generating units (mainly synchronous generators) and causing a reduction in power system inertia. This ...

In many power systems around the world, a major transformation is underway. Proportions of synchronous generation, generally from coal and gas-fired power plants, are rapidly reducing. At the same ...

As coal, gas, and nuclear plants are retired, and wind and solar resources are added to the power grid, stability can become a problem. Understanding the solutions that are available to help manage ...
