Isn't this kind of fault a good argument for synchronizing the UK grid to the rest of Europe? They seem to already have an interconnect that's of the scale of demand needed here, but it's a DC link.
- radiowave 7y agoIf they were synchronized, it would mean that in the case of any larger failure that would draw too much current over the undersea link, the link itself would have to trip out.
- pedrocr 7y agoThat depends on the link size. But I guess it may very well be better to have a big enough DC link and have it automatically modulate power all the way up to maximum and then keep it there, instead of tripping.
