The loss of excitation (LOE) in synchronous generators represents a critical fault condition that can lead to severe operational disruptions and damage within power systems. Under normal conditions, ...

Geothermal power offers a stable, continuous source of renewable energy that could help power millions of homes while reducing dependence on fossil fuels. As governments worldwide pursue ...

As global power grids transition from centralized fossil-based generation to decentralized, renewable sources, system stability has become a critical challenge. The phasing out of synchronous ...

Energy Exploration & Exploitation, Vol. 39, No. 6 (November 2021), pp. 2103-2125 (23 pages) The high-level penetration of intermittent renewable power generation may limit power system inertia, ...

In simple terms, inertia refers to the energy stored in the rotating masses of synchronous generators, typically found in traditional thermal power plants. This stored kinetic energy acts as a cushion ...

Concern about system security has already delayed the closure of Australia's biggest coal generator. But a landmark battery project may provide a quicker and cheaper solution.

A wind energy conversion system needs a maximum power point tracking strategy. In the literature, several works have interested in the search for a maximum power point. Generally, their goals are to ...

An introduction to the symmetric, multiphase, wound-rotor “synchronous” doubly-fed motor or generator system, called SYNCHRO-SYM. How SYNCHRO-SYM is only possible with brushless, automatic, ...

Electricity transmission networks could soon be required to invest in big batteries, or other heavy duty equipment to help stabilise the nation's increasingly fragile power grid. The national body ...
