Distributed energy resources (DERs) with advanced controls can provide services to the grid such as frequency response. However, to do so, unlike conventional generators, DERs typically have to ...

The interconnected power systems serving two-thirds of the United States and Canada are projected to maintain system frequency for at least the next five years, despite a changing resource mix that ...

Microgrids have evolved from simple backup systems to active market participants, leveraging automation, AI, and renewable ...

Energy Exploration & Exploitation, Vol. 39, No. 6 (November 2021), pp. 2103-2125 (23 pages) The high-level penetration of intermittent renewable power generation may limit power system inertia, ...

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 ...

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 ...
