Knowledge-sharing session | Stability-enhancing measures for weak grids
Watch the video
This full-day hybrid knowledge-sharing session, hosted by Monash Grid Innovation Hub, will focus on the findings of the ARENA-funded project “Stability Enhancing Measures for Weak Grids Study”.
Australia has a national grid with many weak areas, undergoing a significant transformation where fossil fuels are being replaced by renewable energy resources such as solar and wind. Many of these renewable resources are located in weak areas of the grid and are prone to various stability issues. In the 2.5-year ARENA-funded project "Stability Enhancing Measures for Weak Grids Study," started in June 2020 and led by Monash Energy Institute’s Grid Innovation Hub with the collaboration of AusNet Services, AEMO, and Hitachi Energy as the project partners, researchers and PhD students conducted a desktop study to explore issues and strategies associated with connecting inverter-connected plants such as batteries, solar, and wind into weak electricity grids. This full-day knowledge-sharing session presents the findings of this study in four themes: SynCons, grid-following inverters, power-synchronised grid-following inverters, and grid-forming inverters.
