  • Methods and systems for rapid load support for grid frequency transient events
    Patent number: 11063539
    Abstract: This application provides methods and systems for rapid load support for grid frequency transient events. Example systems may include a turbine having a first controller, a generator coupled to the turbine, where the generator is configured to provide power to an electrical grid, and an exciter configured to provide a magnetic field in the generator. The exciter may include a second controller configured to monitor a first set of electrical properties associated with the electrical grid, determine that a transient event is present on the electrical grid based on the first set of electrical properties, and send a notification of the transient event to the first controller.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 3, 2019
    Date of Patent: July 13, 2021
    Assignee: GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANY
