The power output of wind turbines can go up or down by 50 percent within seconds. Such fluctuations in the megawatt range put a strain on both power grids and the turbines themselves. A new study by researchers from the University of Oldenburg in Germany and the Sharif University of Technology in Tehran (Iran) presents a method that could help to prevent these power swings. According to th
