Also, in 19, a utility-scale, grid-friendly SPV system that incorporates advanced capabilities required to support grid stability and provide other ancillary services essential to the reliability
Grid Stabilising Services. Grid services are various services to keep the frequency and voltage of the power grid stable. In many regions, this stability has traditionally been supplied by coal or gas-powered plants. Grid services represent a new and growing business area for Statkraft and are particularly promising in Ireland and the UK.
