On the 28th of April 2025 Spain and Portugal were hit with a massive power outage that darkened the Iberian peninsula for up to a day. Many people blamed Spain’s aggressive move towards solar and wind as the cause of the blackout, with no evidence. I released this video [point], where I shared my theory on the outage and how grid-forming inverters were a fairly straightforward solution to the problem. If the phrase “grid forming inverters has you scratching your head, you might want to start with my previous video on the the Spanish Power outage and return here after watching it.   In brief, grid-forming inverters allow renewable resources like wind and solar, which dominate the Spanish grid, to mimic large thermal power plants with massive rotating turbines and generators. The electronics in the inverters mimic this rotational inertia and help the grid operators maintain the proper frequency.   On June 18th, 2025 the Spanish Grid Operator released their analysis of the power outage “Blackout in the Spanish Peninsular Electrical System the 28th of April 2025”, so I figured the honest thing to do is look at my analysis in the context of theirs.   If you'd like to support my work, you can buy me a beverage https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Decarbonize What caused the Spanish Power Outage and the simple solution https://youtu.be/ZiHum-VNHAM Why aren’t we using the best technology to enhance our grid? https://youtu.be/oqZ1a3nCWuM Blackout in Spanish Peninsular Electrical System the 28th of April 2025 https://d1n1o4zeyfu21r.cloudfront.net/WEB_Incident_%2028A_SpanishPeninsularElectricalSystem_18june25.pdf   Grid-Forming Technology: The Lesson from Spain’s Blackout - Sunny.
