This paper reviews six IVGTF tasks related to interconnection and operating requirements, and provides a report on their objectives, milestones and status. The three interconnection tasks are: Interconnection Requirements Enhancement (Task 1.3); Low Voltage Ride-Through (LVRT) Requirements (Task 1.7); and Balancing Authority (BA) Communications (Task 2.2). The three operating tasks are: Incorporating...
This paper proposes a new methodology for evaluating the probabilistic reliability of grid constrained composite power system including the WTG. The proposed model can consider capacity limitation and forced outage rate of transmission line. The importance of renewable energy sources has been growing at a high rate as a result of being environment friendly. In particular, wind energy is one of the...
Considerable development of non-traditional transmission has been planned and implemented in the Northeast, including ties interconnecting ISO/RTOs. This paper describes how ISO New England and the New York Independent System Operator both accommodate non-traditional transmission development. The paper also describes the planning, implementation, and operating experience with nontraditional transmission...
Over the last several years, the ERCOT ISO has been experiencing an ever increasing penetration of variable generation resources in the system, a majority being Wind-powered Generation Resources. Although the ERCOT ISO continues to reliably maintain and operate the grid, additional tools and training will be needed in order to successfully integrate more variable generation resources into the system...
Renewable energy integration with the power systems will change the power systems in many ways. Renewable resources in remote areas will trigger extensive transmission upgrades to deliver green energy to the load centers. The intermittent and non-dispatchable characteristics of the renewable resources will impact both long-term system adequacy and real-time system security. Uncertainty of the development...
The electric power grid is a highly complex system with unique challenges for ensuring safety and reliability of operations. The high degree of interconnectivity and dynamics of loads, sources, and lines has introduced vulnerability. These challenges include such factors as - aging infrastructure, transmission expansion to meet growing demands, distributed resources, congestion management, reliability...
New Wind generating facilities are the fastest renewable resource to install and interconnect to the power grid. Wind generation, however, presents the largest operational challenges. Wind generation energy production is extremely variable; it often produces its highest energy output when the demand for power is at a low point. During some periods of the year, wind generation is difficult to forecast...
