One door closes, and another opens. Not far from one of Germany’s many retired nuclear power plants is a new kind of generator, never before seen on the country’s electricity grid. Opened in March, the 300-megawatt (MW) Biblis Grid Stability Power Plant has one job and one job only: to ensure stability in tense grid situations, when supply and demand are out of balance.
