- 1Measuring Grid Stability as Renewables Replace Traditional Power●How do you measure grid stability as we shift to renewables? Solar/wind lack the natural inertia of traditional power pl
As solar and wind replace conventional power plants, grids lose the natural inertia that traditionally kept frequency stable, raising concerns about blackout risks. UK-based Reactive Technologies is addressing this by sending sonar-like pulses through the grid to measure live inertia directly, revealing risks that standard models miss. The company has received €19 million in backing from the European Investment Bank to expand the approach.
