The increasing integration of renewable energy sources into power systems poses significant operational challenges, particularly concerning voltage and frequency stability. These challenges arise chiefly from the displacement of synchronous generators by generation technologies with limited reactive‐power support and inertia. This article provides a structured review of recent scientific literature indexed in Scopus and Web of Science, focusing on voltage and frequency stability in power systems with high penetration of renewable energy sources. The review identifies, classifies, and offers a comprehensive synthesis of documents in two main categories: (i) analytical frameworks for system stability assessment, and (ii) proposals aimed at mitigating instability. A wide range of methods is recognized, from the development of quantitative indices and sensitivity analyses to the design of controllers and energy‐storage‐based strategies. Moreover, the analysis reveals a persistent gap between theoretical diagnosis and practical implementation, especially under uncertainty. The findings underscore the need for integrated approaches that combine accurate stability assessment with robust, adaptive, and scalable solutions.
La creciente integración de fuentes de energía renovable en los sistemas de potencia plantea potenciales desafíos operativos, particularmente en lo relacionado con la estabilidad de tensión y frecuencia debido principalmente al desplazamiento de los generadores síncronos por tecnologías de generación con limitadas capacidades de soporte reactivo e inercial. Este artículo presenta una revisión estructurada de la literatura científica reciente en las bases de datos Scopus y Web of Science, enfocada en la estabilidad de tensión y frecuencia en sistemas de potencia con alta penetración de fuentes de energía renovable. Esta revisión permitió identificar, clasificar y ofrecer una síntesis comprensiva de documentos en dos categorías principales: (i) marcos analíticos para la evaluación de la estabilidad del sistema, y (ii) propuestas orientadas a mitigar la inestabilidad. La revisión identifica una amplia gama de métodos, desde el desarrollo de índices cuantitativos y análisis de sensibilidad, hasta el diseño de controladores y estrategias basadas en almacenamiento de energía. Además, el análisis revela una brecha persistente entre el diagnóstico teórico y la implementación práctica, especialmente en contextos de incertidumbre. Los hallazgos resaltan la necesidad de enfoques integrados que combinen una evaluación precisa de la estabilidad con soluciones robustas, adaptativas y escalables.
