G-PST/ESIG Webinar Series: Understanding Grid-forming Inverter Specifications
Featured Speaker: Ben Kroposki, Director – Power Systems Engineering Center, National Renewable Energy Laboratory About the Webinar: Inverter-based resources (IBR) such as photovoltaics, wind, and battery energy storage systems are increasingly being deployed to meet clean energy targets around the world. These systems have traditionally been designed as grid following where they need to have a voltage waveform provided by the system to synchronize to. As synchronous generators from traditional fossil-fuel plants are removed from the grid, the power…
