The power grid does not necessarily require (fully) isochronous operation.  

Microgrid research (e.g., Piagi and Lasseter) has indicated practical ways
to do autonomous control using only local information.   This work has grown
particularly important as we increase distributed generation capacity and
leverage the efficiency of CHP/CCHP/cogeneration.
