Until recently, practical applications of grid-forming (GFM) inverters were limited to micro and isolated grids and in smaller grid applications on the order of a few tens of megawatts. Over the past 12 months, the landscape has changed rapidly, with … [Read more...]
Is electromagnetic transient modelling and simulation of large power systems necessary and practical?
Rising levels of inverter-based resources (IBRs) create a need for new approaches to modelling for the power grid, for both operational and planning purposes. Examples of such shifts in modelling approaches are occurring for some regions of … [Read more...]
Electromagnetic transient simulation models for large-scale system impact studies in power systems having a high penetration of inverter-based resources
Power system operators and network owners rely on power system modelling and simulation to maintain secure operation of power systems in real time. Conventional power system simulation models, typically referred to as root-mean square (RMS) models, … [Read more...]
Measures for Managing South Australian Power System Accounting for Lessons Learned from the Recent Blackout Event
The South Australian (SA) power system exhibits one of the highest penetrations of asynchronous generation worldwide, with only one AC interconnector to a neighbouring power system. The installed asynchronous generation amounts to approximately 2 GW … [Read more...]
