What are the challenges in low-inertia power system?

Low-inertia power system is one of the major challenges in the modern power grids. The challenges in this type of power system include the difficulty in maintaining frequency stability, the increased risk of voltage instability, the inability to quickly respond to changing loads, and the potential cascading blackouts. Low-inertia power systems are typically associated with renewable energy sources such as wind and solar, which are inherently intermittent and unpredictable, making it difficult to maintain grid stability. To overcome these challenges, new technologies and strategies such as advanced control systems, energy storage, and smart grids are being developed.
