Abstract

This chapter examines how wind power will impact the stability of power systems. It focuses on the three aspects of power system stability: voltage stability, rotor angle stability and frequency stability. It completes a detailed analysis as to how wind power in power systems will impact the short-term and long-term stability of the system. Utilizing fault analysis, power flow studies, frequency simulations, small-signal analysis, and transient analysis this chapter examines the spectrum of stability issues associated with power systems. As wind power continues to increase in power systems around the world, it will become critical to examine stability issues in power system in the same manner and traditional power system components. This chapter provides a basic outline on how to perform power system stability studies with large penetrations of wind power.
