Comparative analysis and optimal allocation of virtual inertia from grid‐forming and grid‐following controlled ESSs by Naixuan Zhu, Pengfei Hu, Chongxi Jiang, Yanxue Yu, Daozhuo Jiang

“…A modified IEEE 39‐bus system and its time‐domain simulations help in the verification of the contribution of this paper. Through the comparative analysis of corresponding optimal results, the conclusions from two aspects are drawn: in terms of transient frequency support, the grid‐forming devices can provide no less than 26% better inertia support; with the higher power capacity and similar energy capacity, the grid‐forming devices can relieve the response pressure of other generators by approximately 77.1%.…”
