Electricity System Operability and Reliability Under Increasing Complexity
The U.S. electricity system, known collectively as "the grid," is increasingly integrating a complex array of distributed energy resources (DERs) such as solar panels, wind turbines, batteries, and small-scale energy generators. By harnessing a diverse range of power sources and often generating energy close to the point of use rather than only in central power plants, DERs offer unprecedented fle...
