Energy power from renewable sources, especially wind turbine generators, are being considered as an important generation alternative in the electrical power systems around the world due to their non contaminant nature and low environmental effects. In particular, the power supplied by wind generators is widely random following the random nature of weather conditions; therefore a probabilistic a...

Aiming at the prevention of global warming, energy conservation and the reduction of power generation cost, demonstration and full-scale production of power generation devices using renewable energy are well underway. In Japan, the feed-in tariff program for renewable energy (photovoltaic, wind, hydro, geothermal and biomass power) started in July 2012 and their deployment is expected to accele...

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 f...

A wind farm is a collection of wind turbines built in an area to provide electricity. Wind power is a renewable energy resource and an alternative to non-renewable fossil fuels. In this paper impact of wind farms in power system reliability is investigate and a new procedure for reliability assessment of wind farms in HL1 level is proposed. In proposed procedure, application of Fuzzy – Markov f...

The sporadic behavior of wind currently hampers electrical companies from fully utilizing wind energy as a viable resource. Observations of reported wind generation data suggest that there may be diurnal patterns in wind generation. Predicting the magnitude and graphical shape of wind generation at different times during the day would help control room operators to better direct the assignment ...

The uncertainty and regularity of wind power generation are caused by wind resources’ intermittent and randomness. Such volatility brings severe challenges to the wind power grid. The requirements for ultrashort-term and short-term wind power forecasting with high prediction accuracy of the model used, have great significance for reducing the phenomenon of abandoned wind power , optimizing the ...

this paper presents a probabilistic optimal power flow (popf) algorithm considering different uncertainties in a smart grid. different uncertainties such as variation of nodal load, change in system configuration, measuring errors, forecasting errors, and etc. can be considered in the proposed algorithm. by increasing the penetration of the renewable energies in power systems, it is more essent...
