Renewables in a Stable Electric Grid (RE-SERVE)

Start date: Oct 1, 2016, End date: Sep 30, 2019,

Future energy systems will use renewable energy sources to minimise CO2 emissions. Currently large generators powered by fossil fuel turbines maintain the stability and quality of energy supplies through their inertia. The inertia of these generator-turbine groups gives providers a significant time window in which to react to network events. We urgently need to find ways to stabilise energy sys ...
