Europe’s booming solar generation is overwhelming the region’s grids, sending power prices slumping far below zero.
There are no electrical connections to the grid without a shut off. Every wire is required to have a rated shut off at the most basic level.
Ok, so how do the grid controllers access that? How do you decide fairly which sites to turn off?
It depends on the supplier contract that has to be filed with RTE before you’re allowed to connect and transmit power.
