Abstract

This work proposes to investigate the benefits of synchronous compensation in addressing concerns pertinent to: • the quantitative study of the benefits of synchronous compensation to system rate of change of frequency (RoCoF); • the quantitative study of the impact that synchronous compensation has on the risk of loss of commutation on the Western Link.
