Breadcrumb Home Systems Power Stability Flexibility Generators Synchronous Condensers Rotating Stabilizer Electrification & Storage’s range of synchronous condensers help stabilize weak grids and enable higher penetration of renewable energy Rotating Stabilizers For Grid Stability Rotating Stabilizers infographic Leveraging our vast experience in rotating machine technology The global energy mix is changing, with more clean renewable energy sources being added to the grid. The intermittency of renewable energy sources has raised clear challenges to grid integration and its stability.GE Vernova’s Rotating Stabilizers – Electrification & Storage’s range of Synchronous Condensers – provide a CO2 free and cost-effective solution to replicate the synchronous inertia response provided by traditional thermal power generation. Efficient and reliable synchronous inertia GE Vernova’s Rotating Stabilizers are high-inertia rotating machines that can support the grid network in delivering efficient and reliable synchronous inertia and can help stabilize frequency deviations by generating and absorbing reactive power.Rotating Stabilizers can help reduce emissions and maintain grid performance by providing the same synchronous inertia as coal or gas power plants without the associated CO2 emissions and high running costs.This flexible technology can be deployed as/when required by the system operator. Electrification’s Rotating Stabilizers have three operating modes Synchronous inertia support to the grid with instantaneous response to change in grid frequency Synchronous inertia support to the grid with instantaneous response to change in grid frequency Power factor correction to provide continuous leading or lagging VArs Power factor correction to provide continuous leading or lagging VArs High power pulse generation enabling a high-power pulse from a weak power source High power pulse generation enabling a high-power pulse from a weak power source Features EXTENDED SYSTEM SERVICESThe Rotating Stabilizer can provide several services including Synchronous Inertia Response (SIR), Steady/Dynamic Reactive Power, (SSRP/DRP) and an option for Fast Frequency Response (FFR) with larger convertersSupports the network grid when increasing non-synchronous penetration, and with wide scale distributed generationSimilar grid support capabilities as a CCGT power stationNo grid disturbance with variable speed drive start.PROVEN TECHNOLOGYBased upon mature hydro power generator technology to deliver high reliability and low maintenance Benefits CO-LOCATED DISTRIBUTED GENERATIONImproves grid connection agreement and reduce overall costsStability at point of nonsynchronous generationVoltage support to enable more active power Available Configurations Extended Power Quality Offering Our wide range of electrification solutions include motors, generators and power electronics-based turbine starting static frequency converters (SFC) and static excitation equipment (SEE), variable speed drive systems for power plant auxiliary systems, MVDC, power quality systems and automation and controls.
