: Operating the Irish power system with increased levels of wind power. Paper presented at the 2008 PES General Meeting, July 20-24, 2008, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. 2008-07.
Abstract:
This paper summarises some of the main impacts of
large amounts of wind power installed in the island of Ireland.
Using results from various studies performed on this system,
it is shown that wind power will impact on all time frames,
from seconds to daily planning of the system operation. Results
from studies examining operation of the system with up to
approximately 40% of electricity provided by wind show that
some of the most important aspects to be considered include
the type of wind turbine technology, the provision of reserve to
accommodate wind forecasting error and the method used to
plan plant schedules.
