More specifically, the high penetration of solar energy in the network will reduce the total system inertia which could jeopardize the system 's stability during contingency. The lack of inertia in the power system will increase the rate of change of frequency (ROCOF). Moreover, the primary frequency response (PFR) should react fast after the contingency event and if it happens the PFR should response to prevent system blackout. In this dissertation the effects of generator ratings on inertia and frequency response in power systems have been analysed and discussed.
