Webinar: Grid Stability Services – A Demonstration to Quantify How Much is Needed, How Much is Provided, and How it will Change
April 8 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm EDT

Featured Speakers: Matthew Richwine, Founding Partner, Telos Energy; Nick Miller, Principal, HickoryLedge LLC; Deepak Ramasubramanian, Senior Technical Leader, EPRI
Webinar Abstract: As the grid transitions from synchronous machinery to inverter-based resources, the grid services that power systems need to be stable won’t change, but the way we define and measure those services will change — and it’s more than just inertia. This webinar covers the grid stability services framework that was introduced in 2024, and presents the results from applying the framework to quantify the services on a current system. We also present how those services change in high grid-forming and high grid-following IBR futures to enable planners and operators to determine how much stability services they have and what they need.
About the Speakers:
Matthew Richwine is a founding partner of Telos Energy and is a leader in power systems engineering, power electronic controls, and system stability. For over fifteen years, he has been designing, testing, and analyzing thermal and renewable power generation equipment and studying the stability of power systems ranging from tens of megawatts to tens of gigawatts. Prior to founding Telos Energy, Matthew worked for General Electric in its Energy Consulting department, most recently as the Senior Manager of the Renewables and Controls team. In that role, he led a team in the development of new control systems for power converters and transmission planning models for GE’s Renewables business.
Nick Miller is an internationally known power system engineer, with specialty in integration of wind and solar generation to bulk power systems. He consults and is currently conducting research on bulk grid stability for US ISOs and TOs. He spent 3/8 of a century with GE. He is an elected member of the US National Academy of Engineering, an IEEE Life Fellow, a NY P.E., and a Distinguished Member of CIGRE. He authored 20 US patents, has over 180 publications with over 8,000 citations and is the recipient of GE’s Edison Award, CIGRE’s Philip Sporn Award, the IEEE Ramakumar Renewable Energy Award, and is a Lifetime Member of ESIG.
Deepak Ramasubramanian is currently a Senior Technical Leader at the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI). His work at EPRI includes development of new and improved mathematical models and processes, for the large electric power system, to represent the behavior of inverter interfaced generation sources, and loads, and evaluation and development of transmission planning criteria including uncertainty of sources and loads.
