Power systems today operate in an environment where reliability and safety must be maintained despite rising loads, expanding ...

Negative feedback is used in voltage regulators, point-of-load (POL) regulators, voltage references, operational amplifiers (op-amps), and other electronic circuits in order to produce an accurate ...

Massive integration of inverter-based renewable energy systems has been displacing conventional generating units (mainly synchronous generators) and causing a reduction in power system inertia. This ...

In its latest monthly column for pv magazine, IEA-PVPS provides a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art practices, best practices, and recommendations for managing reactive power amidst the ...

Kauai, one of the most remote islands of Hawaii, stands steady among the timeless crash of ocean waves. Electric waves, however, almost crashed Kauai's power system in an instant.

One concern some observers raise about the growth of inverter-based resources, such as solar, wind, and battery storage, supplying the power grid is that they don’t provide inertia. Inertia has ...

Energy markets are undergoing some massive transitions. Growing demand for electricity, when combined with the need to limit carbon emissions, drives a huge increase in renewables. This growth is ...
