Uncertainty of the wind power output is the main influence factor for wind power utilization in the bulk power system. Because of the large capacity and the load characteristic, energy-intensive load holds great potentials to share the burden of wind power fluctuation smoothing. In this paper, a direct control scheme of the energy-intensive load power is proposed to smooth the wind power fluctuati...Show More
Frequency control of isolated power systems with high penetration of wind power is a challenging task for system operators. The difficulty results from the limited frequency response capability of thermal power units to keep up with the fluctuations of wind power. This paper develops a field verification architecture to leverage aluminum smelting loads (ASLs) to participate in primary frequency co...Show More
In this paper, a two-dimensional versatile distribution was proposed to describe the joint cumulative probability density of relevant wind farms, which had a concise expression and was accurate in representing binary variables. Then it was applied to make sure that scheduling results could meet the reserve capacity requirement for a given confidence level. Based on this chance constrains model, fo...Show More
Efficient utilization of large-scale wind power is crucial to make the power industry economical and environment friendly. One way to consume wind power is through constructing isolated power systems with wind power supplying high energy consumption industries directly. However, one key issue, which limits the isolated power system for industry-wide application is to maintain the system frequency ...Show More
