IEEE Power & Energy Society General Meeting - IEEE PES GM 2024, Seattle (United States of America). 21-25 July 2024


Summary:

The stability of large-scale power systems is being challenged by the high penetration of converter interface generation (wind and solar photovoltaic).
Synchronous generators must be committed to guarantee the stability of a large-scale power system in scenarios of high penetration of renewable energy sources connected through grid following converters.
The talk will show how the massive incorporation of grid-forming converters can avoid such must-run synchronous generation.
Models and test cases of the Spanish power system with representations of the external systems will be used for the illustration.
