About the session

14th May 2015 - 10.25am - 11.05am

Prof. Vladimir Terzija - Role: EPSRC Chair Professor in Power System Engineering 

Considering the whole of the electricity transmission and distribution system in Great Britain, we are expecting a future reduction in system inertia with increasing converter based technologies connecting to the transmission system.

Alternative approaches to providing frequency control measures therefore need to be examined. This session will explore what developments might be needed and how the concept of synthetic inertia could meet requirements.

The session will also outline how the SMART Frequency Control (EFFC NIC) project will investigate practical application of using Phasor Measurement Units for system monitoring and trial fast frequency control provision on non-synchronous generation in GB.
