Managing grid stability and power quality in the renewable energy era

The weak grid conditions pose significant threats during fault events as the voltage recovery becomes sluggish and fault clearance is delayed.

As the world rapidly transitions towards a cleaner and more sustainable energy future, India finds itself at the forefront of this transformative journey. With about 30 percent of the country's current power requirement being met by renewable energy sources, the momentum favours green power. The Indian government has set ambitious targets to triple the renewable energy generation capacity by 2030, aiming for a staggering 500 GW. This mirrors the global ambition to reduce reliance on fossil fuels significantly and progress toward achieving net-zero emissions by 2050.

The integration of large-scale renewable energy (RE) into the grid has brought a new set of technical challenges, particularly regarding grid stability and power quality.
