Summary:

On July 24, 2021, a disturbance in the French transmission system led to the separation of the Iberian power system from the Continental European power system. The frequency excursion led to the tripping of the under-frequency load-shedding protections in the Iberian power system. Hence, the system exhibited large frequency excursions. This paper reports the response of a Spanish 1092 MW BWR nuclear power plant along with the transient.


Keywords: Power system disturbance, frequency stability, nuclear plant, inertial response, auxiliary services
