As global power grids transition from centralized fossil-based generation to decentralized, renewable sources, system stability has become a critical challenge. The phasing out of synchronous ...

ABSTRACT: Faced with Benin’s electricity deficit and dependence, which cause imbalances in its power system, the exploitation of wind energy has become a necessity. The ability of wind turbines to ...

Researchers in the United States have created a droop control strategy for grid-forming inverters that purportedly improves power system frequency stability. By using an exponential active ...

In most large power systems, transmission grid operators are “still able to maintain grid reliability using synchronous generators present in their systems at this time,” notes a report from the ...

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) has approved a new set of reliability standards designed to ensure the stability of the U.S. electric grid as more wind and solar resources come online.

It hasn’t been that long since humans figured out how to create power grids that integrated multiple generators and consumers. Ever since AC won the battle of the currents, grid operators have had to ...

It's great to have a generator handy when you're out on the road in an RV or performing heavy-duty work at a jobsite. Portable power sources mean you don't need to go hunting around for an outlet, and ...

People in the power industry understand inertia and its importance to grid stability. As large thermal power plants and other inertia-providing units are replaced with renewable resources that provide ...

Abstract: Parallel connection of synchronous generators (SGs) and virtual synchronous generators (VSGs) becomes inevitable in islanded microgrids. Mode switching control is an alternative method for ...
