Re:NREL Open-Source Modeling Approach Simulates Low-Inertia ... by chestertn on Monday July 26, 2021 @08:40PM (#27967301)
I am not sure that is a good analogy.

In abstract terms you can think of the inertia as the time constant of a linear ODE. For the same perturbation of the state, the larger the inertia the slowest the variation.

In a grid with low inertia changes in demand (wether increase or decrease demand) are very sudden and thus difficult to control.
