As the world moves towards decarbonization, sources of renewable
power such as solar will play a crucial role in new energy
generation. Energy generation is gradually shifting from
conventional fuels such as coal, oil and natural gas, while demand
for electricity is growing rapidly. The electrification of the
economy is a major global trend underlying the need for stable,
reliable electrical grids. This whitepaper outlines the various
challenges for maintaining grid stability in an era of increasing
installations of renewable sources such as solar, and the role that
technology companies play in ensuring a stable and resilient
electrical grid.
Key takeaways:
A global push to lower carbon emissions is rapidly increasing
demand for electricity sourced from renewables. A stable electrical
grid is required to support the growing generation and demand for
electricity.
Electrical grid operators are faced with two main challenges.
The first challenge is the stable operation and functioning of the
grid. The second is the careful balance of supply and demand of
electricity.
Technology companies such as PV inverter suppliers must develop
next-generation products to address these challenges. Reactive
power, dynamic transient behavior, advanced communications, and
Artificial Intelligence (AI) are examples of features that enable
PV inverters to help stabilize electrical grids.
Energy storage is the key to unlock the full value of solar and
is an important tool which grid operators can use to balance
electricity supply and demand. Batteries in particular have stepped
up to this challenge due to the wide range of services these
systems can provide for the electrical grid.
