Power system stability enhancement with grid forming controls
The electricity system of Finland has faced new challenges due to the increasing penetration of inverter-based resources (IBR), such as wind power. Rapid increase of IBR can cause
System-level stability challenges call for joint Nordic solutions. Accordingly, Fingrid has brought the Nordic transmission system operators together to focus on the demands of a converter-dominated power system and develop analytical methods to ensure the stability of converters. Action is also required on a national scale.
Finland is an international frontrunner in implementing grid-forming capabilities. Grid-connected battery energy systems are already required to have these properties in existing and future converter-dominated areas,” says Harjula.
Therefore, the future Finnish grid has to cater high amount of wind share in the system and if the system cannot cope with the high penetration of wind share, there will be issues related to the power system stability.
The power system of Finland is undergoing a major change. It is increasingly dominated by power converters, as wind power is becoming the main form of electricity production and solar power is also increasing in importance.

“The increasing share of renewables requires a more flexible and responsive grid,” explains a source close to Fingrid, Finland''s transmission system operator. “Traditional grid
Grid Stabilization – Associated Energy Developers Grid Stabilization. Wind and solar resources, while environmentally "clean", are inherently variable power sources. Winds can gust or stop altogether,
For example, it provides a near-instantaneous active power response to resist changes in the voltage phase angle. Finland is an international frontrunner in implementing grid-forming
In the EU''s decarbonization effort, high-voltage electrode boilers play a critical role in applications requiring rapid load absorption and grid stabilization, according to Mäntynen.
Finland has launched the Nordic region''s first grid-forming battery energy storage system (BESS) at Fingrid''s Virkkala substation. This 30 MW/30 MWh facility was developed by Wärtsilä and
