Wind power forecast is essential for a wind farm developer for comprehensive assessment of wind potential at a particular site or topographical location. Wind energy potential at any given location is a non –linear function of mean average wind speed, vertical wind profile, energy pattern factor, peak wind speed, prevailing wind direction, lull hours, air density and a few other parameters. Win...

in this research paper, a 10 minute period measured wind speed data at 10 m, 30 m, and 40 m heights are presented for one of the major provinces of iran. four stations in khuzestan- abadan, hosseyneh, mahshahr, and shushtar- are analyzed to determine the potential of wind power generation in this province. from the primary evaluation and by determining mean wind speed and also the weibull funct...

In a recent paper we have calculated the power density spectrum of Gamma-Ray Bursts arising from multiple shocks in a relativistic wind. The wind optical thickness is one of the factors to which the power spectrum is most sensitive, therefore we have further developed our model by taking into account the photon down-scattering on the cold electrons in the wind. For an almost optically thick win...

Intermittent nature of wind power faced ISO and power producers with new challenges. Wind power uncertainty has increased the required reserve capacity and deployment reserve. Consequently, large-scale wind power generation increases ISO costs and consequently reserve prices. On the other hand, since wind power producers are price taker, large-scale wind power generation decreases residual dema...

Wind energy is the world’s fastest growing energy source. The amount of power generated by wind energy depends on the speed of the wind. Because of the intermittent and fluctuating wind speed they are not suitable to micro grid applications unless proper power and energy management strategies are available. Hence a Suitable method of giving stable active, reactive power is required. Hybrid powe...

The significant penetration rate of wind turbines in power systems made some challenges in the operation of the systems such as large-scale power fluctuations induced by wind farms. Gas-fired plants with fast starting ability and high ramping can better handle natural uncertainties of wind power compared to other traditional plants. Therefore, the integration of electrical and natural gas syste...

One of the primary needs for socio-economic development in any nation in the world is the provision of reliable electricity supply systems. This work is a development of an indigenous technology hybrid Solar -Wind Power system that harnesses the renewable energies in Sun and Wind to generate electricity. Here, electric DC energies produced from photovoltaic and wind turbine systems are transpor...

this study based on investigation for integration wind power into conventional power system with its impact on fossil fuel generators and their generation management. wind power as environmental friendly energy source can reduce the operational cost of the system due to considering no cost for energizing the generator in comparing with fossil fuel generators. however due to unpredictable nature...

One of the critical challenges of wind power integration is the variable and uncertain nature of the resource. This paper investigates the variability and uncertainty in wind forecasting for multiple power systems in six countries. An extensive comparison of wind forecasting is performed among the six power systems by analyzing the following scenarios: (i) wind forecast errors throughout a year...
