Abstract

The global energy structure's transition towards clean and low-carbon sources is driving the large-scale application of new energy power generation, such as wind and solar energy. However, the intermittent, fluctuating, and low-inertia characteristics of new energy power generation differ from the operational mechanisms of traditional power systems dominated by synchronous generators, leading to safety, stability, and power quality issues. This paper focuses on the core factors influencing the safety and stability of new energy power generation, discusses related power quality problems, identifies key contradictions in the current grid-connected operation of new energy, and proposes targeted solutions. It provides references for ensuring the reliable operation of power systems with a high proportion of new energy integration and supports the safe and efficient development of new energy power generation in the energy transition.
