This paper proposes a general methodology for performing generating system adequacy assessment of power systems incorporating several Distributed Energy Resources (DER) located at different nodes of a given distribution network. The disparate operating characteristics as well as capacities of individual DERs along with information about local distribution network loads are combined together to form...
This paper proposes a hybrid AC/DC micro-grid which consists of an AC grid and a DC grid and operates in both grid-tied and autonomous mode. Wind turbine generators (WTGs), diesel generators (DGs) and conventional AC loads are connected to the AC grid whereas photovoltaic arrays with boost converter (PVBC), fuel cell generators and DC loads are tied to the DC grid. AC bus and DC bus are coupled through...
Renewable energy is increasingly being treated as a promising solution to the global warming and other environment issues. Due to the intermittent and uncertain nature of these energy resources, energy storage is required to provide certain wind generation capacity. An analytical method is presented in this paper to evaluate the reliability of power systems with wind turbine generators (WTGs) and...
Renewable energy is increasingly being treated as a promising solution to the global warming and other environment issues. Due to the intermittent nature of these energy resources, energy storage is required to provide certain wind generation capacity.

Addition of Renewable resources in a power system will have significant impact on power generation. Generation Companies (GenCos) characteristics will change according to the availability of new resources. Wind power as a representative and the most common-used renewable energy resource is studied in this paper. Although wind speed is simplified and represented by multistate models, load point reliability...
In a power system with high wind power penetration, reserve allocation is a major problem of system planning and operation due to the uncertainty and fast fluctuation of wind speeds. In order to achieve long term sustainable solution for electricity supply, the impacts of the installation of wind farms on system reliability have to be carefully studied. This paper describes the impact of installation...
