Active power control of wind turbines can improve power grid reliability

Wednesday, January 29, 2014 - 08:00 in Physics & Chemistry

Scientists have completed a comprehensive study to understand how wind power technology can assist the power grid by controlling the active power output being placed onto the system. The rest of the power system's resources have traditionally been adjusted around wind to support a reliable and efficient system. The research that led to this report challenges that concept.
