As synchronous generators retire, grid stability becomes a function of IBR controls. The 2025 release introduces a new library of generic and manufacturer-specific IBR models that comply with the latest grid codes (e.g., NERC PRC-024 and ENTSO-E’s NC RfG). Crucially, it adds a dedicated "Grid-Forming Converter" model. Unlike grid-following converters, grid-forming converters can establish voltage and frequency references, enabling black start capabilities and low-inertia grid operation. This feature is critical for utilities planning for 100% renewable scenarios.
