• The power grid is one of the Most Complex & Immense, ‘7 x 24 must run”, engineering machines in existence today!

© 2016 General Electric Technology GmbH – All Rights Reserved. The Huge Challenge we face! 1. Electricity Demand If Supply does not meet Changes second by second demand… Protective relays trip … 2. Electricity: Potential for a cascading Cannot be Stored Easily blackout.. 3. Supply needs to meet demand – immediately! 4. Generation reacts to follow Demand!
