Download Presentation View Webinar Recording Download Q&A Featured Speakers: Matthew Richwine, Founding Partner, Telos Energy and Nicholas Miller, Principal, HickoryLedge LLC About the Webinar: 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 will cover recent progress on the evolution of grid services and discuss a framework for…

Towards 100% Renewable Energy Pathways Workshop
All deep decarbonization scenarios involve increasing electrification of energy end-use and increasing utilization of renewable resources. The purpose of this workshop is to develop a coordinated international research roadmap to address the technical challenges associated with incorporating very large amounts of variable generation (wind and solar) into the energy supply mix, recognizing the accompanying electrification of the economy and its social science dimension. In particular, the workshop will focus on the issues of operating a power system with 100% instantaneous…

Download Presentation View Webinar Recording Download Q&A Featured Speaker: Edward Farley, Senior Market Development Lead, National Grid ESO About the Webinar: Stability services are vital for the safe and secure operation of the electricity network. Traditionally our stability requirements (inertia and short circuit level) in Great Britain have been provided by synchronous generation as a natural by-product of creating electricity. As more non-synchronous assets connect to the network, which do not have this inherent capability, the ESO needs alternative sources…
