Abstract
With increasing the intermitting generation such as wind power (WP) and photovoltaic (PV) in the European power system, the conventional power plants online will be replaced by WP and PV. Thus, the sources of conventional reserve available to the system will be reduced and fewer conventional plants will be available online to share the regulation burden. Reserve management by conventional plants will be difficult, especially in isolated power systems, which have no interconnection and limited capability of power regulation. The power system inertia will be reduced, greater rates of frequency change will be observed during system contingencies and conventional prime movers will have less time to react in order to keep the frequency stable. Therefore, this paper focuses on the effects of increasing intermitting generation on the frequency control of the European power system using different scenarios of the intermittent generation after occurrence of abrupt variations in generation and load. The model was created using SIMULINK/MATLAB software.
