Optimal Operation of Wind Integrated Power Systems

Abstract

The concept of sustainable development is now a prominent part of global policy discourse newlineand fostered the growth of renewable energy. Wind energy is amongst the most newlinepromising renewable energy options. However, the stochastic nature of the wind resource newlineintroduces uncertainties in the power system planning and operation. Further, it newlineis not clear how far the sustainable development contribution capability of wind energy newlineis impacted after its integration with power systems. There may be significant difference newlinebetween expected benefits of wind integration computed at the project planning newlinestage and the actual benefits after its integration with power systems. In this context, newlinethe objective of this work is to investigate various operational aspects of wind integrated newlinepower system and evaluate the difference between the estimated benefits of wind energy newlineand actual benefits after its integration. newline
