A grid-scale battery in the Scottish Highlands got a chance to prove its mettle in March when, 11 days after it started up, a massive wood-burning generator in northern England shut down unexpectedly.

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 ...

Grid-forming inverters can operate independently, maintaining voltage and frequency during grid outages, unlike grid-following inverters that rely on external signals. Adoption of GFM technology ...

The author recently installed a complex solar-battery system. Learn how solar inverter is connected to the grid and how each inverter functions when connected or not connected to the grid. Welcome to ...
