So wind turbines have inertia in the same way coal generators do? Ie rotating mass helps grid stability?

- kiney 2y agonormally no. Modern wind turbines have electric inverters that decouple rotation speed from grid frequency
- Havoc 2y agoPity but I guess it makes sense given variable wind
- p_l 2y agoDepends on model, but some turbines are very much designed to provide frequency stabilisation so long as you can instruct what the phase should be at given time
