As more power stations adopted the clocks, the frequency regulation allowed them to share electricity and create an interconnected power grid. And Warren, who eventually solved the grid-frequency problem, was actually working on a different puzzle when he came across the answer. How Warren’s clocks regulated grid frequency Henry E.
