Common Wind Turbine Can Provide Fundamental Grid Stability: NREL

US National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and its partner General Electric (GE) have operated a common class of wind turbines in grid-forming mode, which is when the generator can set grid voltage and frequency and, if necessary, operate without power from the electric grid. The demonstration showed that the popular type-3 turbine technology can supply fundamental […]

S.Aussie Grid World’s 1st to Reach Zero Demand, Rooftop Solar Was Key

To its knowledge, says the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO), South Australia is the first gigawatt-scale power system in the world to approach zero operational demand due to such high proportions of demand being met by distributed energy resources (DER) such as rooftop solar. DERs are growing rapidly in the region, with more than 200 […]
