Transmission Network Planning Including Wind Power

Optimal power flow solution including wind power

In this paper, hybrid particle swarm optimization and gravitational search algorithm is proposed to find the optimal solution for the optimal power flow problem including three wind farms connected to the isolated Adrar Algerian power system. In order to get the cost model, the economic problem is converted into a single objective function considering the fuel cost and cost of wind generation b...

Return on Investment in Transmission Network Expansion Planning Considering Wind Generation Uncertainties Applying Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm

Although significant private investment is absorbed in different sectors of power systems, transmission sector is still suffering from appropriate private investment. This is because of the pricing policies of transmission services, tariffs, and especially for investment risks. Investment risks are due to the uncertain behaviour of power systems that discourage investors to invest in the transm...

Scheduling security constraint unit commitment for power system including stochastic wind power generation

This paper introduces a new approach for scheduling security constraint unit commitment (SCUC) including wind farms. Because of uncertainty in wind power production, we tried to develop a new method for incorporating wind power generation in power plant scheduling. For this, wind power generation modeled with unit commitment in a non-linear optimization problem and simulated by submitting diffe...

Probabilistic Reliability Based Grid Expansion Planning of Power System Including Wind Turbine Generators

This paper proposes a new methodology for evaluating the probabilistic reliability based grid expansion planning of composite power system including the Wind Turbine Generators. The proposed model includes capacity limitations and uncertainties of the generators and transmission lines. It proposes to handle the uncertainties of system elements (generators, lines, transformers and wind resources...
