Power systems today operate in an environment where reliability and safety must be maintained despite rising loads, expanding ...

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 ...

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 ...

Kauai, one of the most remote islands of Hawaii, stands steady among the timeless crash of ocean waves. Electric waves, ...

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 the UK, the share of electricity generation from renewable sources during the second quarter of 2025 reached a new record level of 54.5% of all generation, according to the Department ...

Rising electricity demand from EVs and AI is stressing a grid built of centralized, rotating generators. Renewables can provide fill the rising demand, but are they “grid friendly”? A modern grid must ...
