Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Rethink Energy Talks, we're joined by Duncan Burt, the Chief Strategic Growth Officer at Reactive Technologies, a pioneering grid frequency stability company which measures the stability of power grids around the world.

These measurements replace the old method of modelling - enabling grid operators to know for certain exactly how far they have to go to maintain the stability of the grid, whether by curtailing renewable outputs or investing in infrastructure. As much as 25% of all curtailment is already related to frequency concerns, rather than outright transmission constraints or excess supply compared to demand.
