Frequency Stability of Synchronous Machines and Grid-Forming Power Converters [PDF]
An inevitable consequence of the global power system transition toward nearly 100% renewable-based generation is the loss of conventional bulk generation by synchronous machines (SMs), their inertia, and accompanying frequency- and voltage-control ...
