## Resource

In this episode, host Kelsey Markl welcomes Global System Architect Dr. Manuel Strugholtz to explore the differences between grid-forming and grid-following technologies in stabilizing renewable energy grids. They discuss the challenges of transitioning to distributed energy systems, the technical demands of grid-forming inverters, and how semiconductor innovations like silicon carbide play a crucial role. Will grid-forming become the new standard for future energy grids? Tune in to find out!
