Transient stability of power systems is traditionally evaluated based on synchronous generators, while the trend of modern power systems is toward application of renewable energy resources which many of them use power electronic based inverters to connect to the grid. This paper is devoted to the study of transient instability or so-called out-of-step (OOS) phenomena in the inverter-interfaced synchronous generator (I 2 SG) based renewable energy resources. The differences between the evolutions of OOS and transient instability in traditional synchronous generators and I 2 SGs are elaborated by the equal area criterion. Determining factors of I 2 SGs on its behavior upon grid-side disturbances are explained. Last but not the least, some useful simulation results are presented to substantiate the given analyses.
