Replacing fossil-fueled generators with renewable energy sources is a key method of decarbonization, but renewable power generation is intermittent and nonsynchronous. These factors decrease synchronous inertia and alter the availability of power on an electrical grid’s supply side, threatening the grid’s stability and reliability. Additionally, shortages in available power can lead to exorbitant electricity prices, threatening the finances of electricity consumers.","PeriodicalId":45277,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Electrification Magazine","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140087609","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
