This paper explores the relationship between wind generation, particularly the control of reactive power from variable speed wind turbine generators, and the rotor angle stability of the conventional synchronous generators ...
In order to gauge the potential impact of wave power in Ireland, the capacity factor of theoretical wave farms deployed at various locations around the Irish coast is compared to the system-wide capacity factor of wind ...
As the penetration of variable renewable generation increases in power systems worldwide, planning for the effects of variability will become more important. Traditional capacity adequacy planning techniques have been ...
The capacity value of a generator is the contribution that a given generator makes to generation system adequacy. Due to the variable and stochastic nature of wind, the modeling of wind generation in the same manner as ...
This paper discusses the connection policies adopted to facilitate the large number of wind farms seeking access to the Irish power system. A key feature is a grouped connection offer process that provides certainty for ...
Capacity credits are widely used to quantify the
ability of different generating technologies to support demand.
Most practical capacity credit calculations are based on detailed
risk modelling, however a wide range of ...
Electricity markets are currently evolving to accommodate large scale penetration of wind generation. In this research, potential changes to the classification and role of wind
generators in the Single Electricity Market ...
Distributed Generation (DG) is increasing in penetration on power systems across the world. In rural areas, voltage rise limits the permissible penetration levels of DG. Another increasingly important issue is the impact ...
As power systems evolve to incorporate greater
penetrations of variable renewables, the demand for flexibility
within the system is increased. Combined Cycle Gas Turbines
(CCGTs) are traditionally considered as inflexible ...
