Synchronous generators are essential parts of power generation systems, and as the need for renewable energy sources has grown, so has the demand for synchronous generators. Enhancing the ...

This article deals with the study of the particle swarm optimization algorithm and its variants. After modeling the global system, a comparative study is carried out about the algorithms described in ...

A group of researchers in Australia has outlined a new methodology to determine the minimum power rating of energy storage systems (ESSs) used for emergency under-frequency response. The ESS size must ...

Cutting edge battery storage technology designed to provide crucial grid balancing services that are traditionally the preserve of fossil fuel power plants will be showcased in Tahiti, in a project ...

As coal and gas plants are taken offline to be replaced by wind and solar, grid stability and system strength can become serious challenges. This is due to the inherent inertia provided by rotating ...

As coal, gas, and nuclear plants are retired, and wind and solar resources are added to the power grid, stability can become a problem. Understanding the solutions that are available to help manage ...

What is wind power density? The different types of generators used in wind-turbine systems. What architecture is most commonly used in high-power wind-energy-conversion systems (WECS)? Fundamental ...
