Same thing, frequency drop they called it. Pakistan was not so lucky however and they are reportedly in the dark as a result. Can't be a coincidence. Two countries far away with these "frequency drops"? |

Conservative Engineer User ID: 79436387 United States 01/09/2021 05:35 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What causes frequency to drop? Following the loss of generation, the frequency falls, due to the imbalance in generation and demand, and the voltage falls due to a reduced number of circuits out of the area. At the same time the amount of power out of the area also reduces and the rate of change of frequency is high. Why does frequency drop when demand increases? The frequency will remain the same so long as the electricity demand remains the same and the torque from the generator is equal to the torque from the electricity demand. If the demand increases then the frequency will start to drop unless more fuel is burnt to increase the torque of the generator. (copy pasted) |

And they dont have the infrastructure to deal with it. More demand on the system. But why didnt they supply more power to deal with the demand? That wouldn't explain Pakistan. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75791816 the only source of stable power is nuclear...no way around it for western industries...you cant have it both ways... Another problem is that nuclear isn't flexible and can't be used to stabilize the grid destabilized by renewables. Only gas and coal are flexible enough. Anyway, that's what happens when ideology defeats reason, now we'll get a new dark age, literally... Anyway, ice age is coming, there's no stopping the cycle. |
