Electricity is not a policy construct. It is physics – and the physics have not changed since Michael Faraday and the steam ...

Abstract: The large-scale integration of renewable energy such as wind power into the power grid has reduced the inertia level of the power system and weakened the grid’s frequency stability. In ...

Rising electricity demand from EVs and AI is stressing a grid built of centralized, rotating generators. Renewables can provide fill the rising demand, but are they “grid ...

Generators are one of those essentials you don't want to need, but when you do, you'll be glad to have one. Rather than being caught unprepared in a winter storm or surprise outage, you can get a ...

Australia’s energy market operator has warned that NSW could face frequent and costly government intervention to keep the ...

This project made me feel a kind of kinship with Diogenes, although I was searching for the item described in the title rather than for an honest man. Figure 1 “Diogenes Looking for an Honest Man,” a ...

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 ...

Welcome to the era of fakery. The widespread use of instant video generators like Sora will bring an end to visuals as proof. By Brian X. Chen Brian X. Chen is The Times’s lead consumer technology ...

1 Electric Power Research Institute of Guizhou Power Grid Co., Ltd., Guiyang, China 2 College of Electrical Engineering, Sichuan University, Chengdu, China Battery energy storage systems (BESSs) are ...

It hasn’t been that long since humans figured out how to create power grids that integrated multiple generators and consumers. Ever since AC won the battle of the currents, grid operators have had to ...
