Studying the Maximum Instantaneous Non-Synchronous Generation in an Island System—Frequency Stability Challenges in Ireland
TL;DR: In this paper, the frequency stability challenges at high and ultra-high wind penetrations were examined in the All-Island system (AIS) and the impact of both largest infeed loss and network fault induced wind turbine active power dips was examined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wind Turbine Modelling for Power System Stability Analysis—A System Operator Perspective
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine model development and use from the perspective of the Irish grid operator and propose a generic modelling approach for large-scale power system stability investigations. But the validation of developed models is not discussed.

Capability Chart for Distributed Reactive Power Resources
TL;DR: In this article, a capability chart is proposed to identify the combination of power flow profiles within the distribution system most restrictive to reactive power provision, under the assumption that each generator is operated to locally maximize its own reactive power contribution.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors summarized the findings of a study undertaken by the European Academies Science Advisory Council to evaluate the development challenges of concentrating solar power (CSP) and its consequent potential to contribute to low carbon electricity systems in Europe, the Middle East and North Africa (the MENA region) to 2050.
