Adequacy and Security Measures in Integrated Intermittent Renewable Generation Systems

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Reliability and Risk Evaluation of Wind Integrated Power Systems

Abstract

Substantial integration of intermittent renewable energy resources such as wind generation in electric power systems dictates the need to investigate the system reliability implications when adding large amounts of highly variable capacity that differ considerably from conventional generation sources. In order to accomplish this, utilizing a systematic approach to effectively capture the overall reliability measures of a system containing large amounts of intermittent renewable energy sources is required.
