What converter is common to power plants?

The common converter used in power plants is the synchronous generator, which converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. Synchronous generators operate at a constant speed and are widely utilized in large power generation facilities due to their efficiency and ability to maintain system stability. Additionally, in renewable energy applications, power plants may also use power electronic converters, such as inverters, to convert DC electricity from sources like solar panels into AC electricity for the grid.


How is electronics used in thermal power plants?
