Wide-Area Control

Wide-Area Control (WAC) is a method used to manage and coordinate large electrical power grids across extensive regions. It involves monitoring, analyzing, and adjusting the flow of electricity in real-time to ensure stability, prevent blackouts, and improve efficiency. By using advanced communication technology and sophisticated algorithms, WAC helps grid operators respond quickly to changing conditions, such as sudden power surges or failures, maintaining a reliable and secure electricity supply for millions of people.
