A group of researchers in Australia has outlined a new methodology to determine the minimum power rating of energy storage systems (ESSs) used for emergency under-frequency response. The ESS size must ...

Abstract: The frequency response characteristics of inverter-based resources (IBRs) and synchronous generators (SGs) vary significantly during system contingencies, often resulting in prolonged ...

Abstract: HVDC-connected offshore wind power plants (OWPPs) are expected to provide inertial response and frequency containment reserve (FCR) to help address the frequency control challenges caused by ...

Large-scale photovoltaic (PV) integration into microgrids often leads to reduced inertia, diminished damping, and increased generation intermittency. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a ...

The proposed GFM PVSG concept can transform today's GFL PV plants into GFM PV plants, thereby offering a cost-effective approach forward. Figure 1. Grid forming PVSG: Parallel a GFM storage system ...

As more renewable energy sources and battery storage units are specified and incorporated into power systems, consultant specifying engineers are faced with many challenges that could impact the ...

As gas and steam power generation plants approach the end of their operational life, plant owners face a challenging decision between upgrading or retiring the plant. Retiring a power generation unit ...
