> Grid operators are currently mostly against renewable and so they impose "blunt" disconnect rules on inverters behind renewable sources, and this comes to bite the grid when the proverbial shit hits the fan.
As a distributed systems person, this seems like a coordination/communication problem. If a single node is having repeated events, it may likely be broken and staying offline could be a better choice. If multiple nodes are having repeated events, maybe it's better for them to stay connection and do their best.
