How does the grid code affect inverter sizing and Technology?The grid code affects inverter sizing and technology. The national grid code might require the inverters to be capable of reactive power control. In that case, over-sizing inverters slightly could be required. The grid code also sets requirements on THD, which is the level of harmonic content allowed in the inverter’s AC power output.
Are inverter-based resources a major role in modern power systems?Abstract: Inverter-based resources (IBRs) are playing a major role in modern power systems, and the installation of IBRs is still growing in recent years, which necessitates the continuous development of grid codes and requirements, e.g. National Grid GC0137 in 2021 and IEEE Std. 2800 in 2022.
