Grid Rpower Failure

Views: 306
What happens when a major power plant loses its connection to the grid, instantly,
. . . dramatically unbalancing the supply and demand of electricity?

Blackouts happen, if there isn’t an instant response!

Investigation into reliability questions found,
. . . that all 3 of the gas generator manufacturers (GE, ABB, Siemens)
. . . predominant in the U.S. had for years been delivering equipment,
. . . that fail to provide this “essential reliability service”.

This revelation, that U.S. grid reliability has been weakened,
. . . by a thousand new gas-fired power plants,
. . . negates the findings of several dramatic statements and studies,
. . . that warn about impacts from increased use of renewables.
