The power generated from renewable energy sources presents highly variable and fluctuating characteristics at different time scales. The fluctuating behavior of renewable energy sources makes it difficult to balance power production and demand, causing the control of frequency in the electric power systems to become more and more difficult under increased penetration of renewable energy resources. This panel presents industry experience and academic research on frequency regulation and control under the high penetration of intermittent renewable power generation. These include research advance in fast frequency response, primary frequency response, secondary frequency response, and/or tertiary frequency response as well as their integration to improve grid reliability and efficiency and to overcome the challenges of low system inertia under high renewable power penetration.
