Mobile differential optical absorption spectroscopy (mobile DOAS) is an optical remote sensing method that can rapidly measure trace gas emission flux from air pollution sources (such as power plants, industrial areas, and cities) in real time. Generally, mobile DOAS is influenced by wind, drive velocity, and other factors, especially in the usage of wind field when the emission flux in a mobil...

The fluctuating nature of wind power introduces several challenges to reliable operation of power system. With high wind power penetration, conventional power plants are displaced and wind speed fluctuations introduce large power imbalances which lead to power system frequency control and operational problems. This paper analyses the impact of wind power in the frequency control of power system...

The wind resource is a crucial step in planning a wind energy project and detailed knowledge of the wind characteristic at a site is needed to estimate the performance of a wind energy project. In this paper, with the help of 2-parameter Weibull distribution, the assessment of wind energy potentiality at Kudat and Labuan in 2006e2008 was carried out. “WRPLOT” software has been used to show the ...

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...

With the expansion of wind farm installations in most countries all over the world, the power generation has already significantly influenced on the stability and security of the power grid after gridconnection. Wind power forecasting is an effective method for guarantees stability of the power output from wind farm. This paper proposed an improved GM(1,1) based prediction method, and focuses o...

This study investigates the feasibility of using a data-driven optimization approach to determine the coordinated control actions of wind turbines that maximize the total wind farm power production. Conventionally, for a given wind condition, an individual wind turbine maximizes its own power production without taking into consideration the conditions of other wind turbines. Under this greedy c...

Wind farms usually produce power irregularly, due to unpredictable change of wind speed. Accordingly, we should determine the penetration limit of wind power to consider stability of power system and build a facility to control the wind power. The operational limit of wind power is determined as the minimum between the technical limit and the dynamic limit of wind power. The technical limit is ...

The traditional cumulant method (CM) for probabilistic optimal power flow (P-OPF) needs to perform linearization on the Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) first-order conditions, therefore requiring input variables (wind power or loads) varying within small ranges. To handle large fluctuations resulting from large-scale wind power and loads, a novel P-OPF method is proposed, where the correlations among ...

The California generation fleet manages the existing variability and uncertainty in the demand for electric power (load). When wind power is added, the dispatchable generators manage the variability and uncertainty of the net load (load minus wind power). The variability and uncertainty of the load and the net load are compared when 8790MW of wind power are added to the California power system,...
