I would expect anyone making power with wind and solar and putting it on the grid would have to be synced too.
Many years ago I worked at Bethleham steel Burns harbor, we made our own power. It was tied to the grid. The power station had a frequency counter. If I recall correctly, around 2 am, they would adjust generators to get the number of cycles generated by NIPSC. But that doesn't make sence. If one generator is 180 out of phase, wouldn't that cancel out the voltage? They would have to be synced 24/7
I thought at one time canada was 50hz and a totally different voltage than our common 110v, 220v, 440v. Of course operating on different voltage would be no issue, use a different transformer. So what you are saying, canada produces 60 hz.
I could see a real big disaster is some Bubba fead power from a genny to the grid.
Didn't Thomas Edison have that problem, he got his generators synced sparks went flying?

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
