An inevitable consequence of a power system transition towards 100% IBR is the loss of synchronous generators with their associated inertia, frequency, and voltage control mechanisms.
The shift to net zero energy systems has changed the face of our power grid. Traditional large-scale synchronous generators found inside coal and natural gas plants are being replaced with inverter-based resource (IBR)
a)Stability criteria in high IBR-penetrated power systems are analytically formulated as operational constraints. Depending on system impedance, power injections, gen-erator status, these constraints cover frequency stability, synchronization stability and voltage stability and can be applied for any power system optimization model.

An inverter-based resource (IBR) is a source of electricity that is asynchronously connected to the electrical grid via an electronic power converter ("inverter"). The devices in this category, also known as converter interfaced generation (CIG), include the variable renewable energy generators (wind, solar) and battery storage power stations.

Power systems are undergoing a rapid change in generation mix due to the growth of inverter-based resources (IBRs) such as wind, solar, and battery energy storage. The dynamic behavior of the Bulk Power System (BPS) that has typically been driven by synchronous machines is increasingly influenced or even largely determined by IBRs.

The combination of one or more renewable-energy sources with a diesel generator is known as a hybrid system . In Antarctica, the renewable-energy sources used in hybrid systems are wind or solar power, both of which are non-dispatchable.
Wind-energy use is becoming increasingly prevalent at Antarctica’s research stations. The present study identified more than ten research stations that have been using wind to generate electricity. The installed wind capacity, as identified by the study, is nearly 1500 kW of installed capacity.
Several renewable electricity generation technologies that have proven effective for use in the Antarctic environment are described. as well as those that are currently in use. Finally, the paper summarizes the major lessons learned to support future projects and close the knowledge gap.
This transition to an IBR-dominant power grid introduces new characteristics, altering how our grid operates. Therefore, the role of IBRs has expanded, requiring them to provide a range of essential services to keep our grid reliable, resilient, and secure. The shift to net zero energy systems has changed the face of our power grid.
The use of wind energy in Antarctica can be challenging, due to the extreme climatic conditions; the annual mean temperature can be as low as −50 °C on the inland plateau . The lowest temperature on Earth, measured at −89.2 °C, was recorded at Vostok Station in July 1983 [5, 26].
Interest in alternative energy sources in Antarctica has increased since the beginning of the 1990s [1, 6]. In 1991, a wind turbine was installed at the German Neumayer Station . One year later, in 1992, NASA and the US Antarctic Program tested a photovoltaic (PV) installation for a field camp .
