Find out how grid inertia from synchronous generators supports reliable electricity supply during sudden demand changes.

As the energy industry shifts towards renewable sources like wind and solar, traditional power generation methods face new ...

Britain’s National Energy System Operator (Neso) has set an ambition to run the power grid without gas by the end of this ...

Scientists at the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) have developed a new class of lightweight, highly ...

The National Energy System Operator (Neso) has revealed plans to keep the lights on using only wind, solar, nuclear, battery ...

Spain and Portugal were plunged into darkness recently in a major blackout but the UK hopes to avoid this issue.

Deep in China’s Hubei province, a structure designed to tame nature may also be nudging the planet’s rotation. The Three ...

Installing a lightweight flywheel — often made from aluminum versus steel — will decrease an engine's inertia ... increase horsepower via lower rotating mass, and your engine will feel ...

Nuclear, coal and gas power plants have huge steel generators that provide large rotating mass — often referred to as inertia — that can maintain stability if there are fluctuations in the grid.

These limitations in configuration space mainly stem from the inertial coupling that passive joints/bodies create. In this study, we present a model that is free from singularity while the trajectory ...
