Abstract

This research proposes a post-stage investment analysis in the transmission expansion network planning problem considering the intermittence of renewable energy sources, especially wind power sources. The main goal of this study is to analyze the voltage profiles in all the system buses and the level of electrical losses in the lines using AC flow for impact evaluation of renewable energy insertion. This research also performs an additional analysis considering wind energy insertion during the planning stage. This analysis is to demonstrate the effect in the stage of investment in transmission lines. The variability of these sources is represented through scenarios obtained by the K-means classification algorithm that allows the preservation of the correlation among generating stations. The methodology performance is tested using the IEEE 24-bus system, which is modified to include a significant share of wind energy.
