Abstract
This paper is addressing the quantification and the comparison of pumped storage power plants, PSPP, contribution to synchronous inertia and synthetic inertia when fixed speed and variable speed motor-generators technologies are considered, respectively. Therefore, a grid stability study was conducted by means of 1D SIMSEN simulation for the 2 x 395 MW PSPP Frades 2 in Portugal with both fixed speed and variable speed technologies in case of operation connected to an infinite power network or to an islanded 4.4 GW synchronous power network.
