Wind and solar parks produce a large portion of their energy. Then, as now, wind farms are operating off the world’s coasts—but not all of these offshore sites are connected to the mainland via underwater power cables. Many countries have met their climate goals and are on track to be completely carbon neutral.

As our world becomes more connected, more electrified, and more renewable, not only are we increasing the demand on our energy systems, but we are also fundamentally changing the way they operate. Grid balancing is about ensuring electricity supply meets demand second-by-second, by regulating properties including power, voltage and frequency.
