Reliability investigation of the South African power generation system with the inclusion of wind energy
… Procurement Program (REIPPPP) has a proposed capacity of 3725MW, allocating 1850MW to wind energy. This dissertation investigates the effects that geographical dispersion and penetration level have on the wind capacity credit and the reliability of the South African power generation system, by …

Generation reliability modeling and analysis of wind power plants
… of a power system and deserve to be granted capacity credits. The ELCC method is used to calculate the capacity credit of wind generators. Capacity credits values between 16% and 32% were computed and correlate with the results of comparable studies. Capacity credit of wind farms also …

Wind power statistics in Britain, and their consequences for the integration of wind generation into electricity grids
… a period of 9 years. Estimates of wind power capacity credit and wind operating reserve requirements as functions of wind power penetration into the conventional grid, geographical separation of wind power plant and specific power of wind turbines are made. An important result from this work, …

Application of wind in large-scale electric power production
… terms, arrays of wind farms produce some firm capacity because of the diversity of wind at the dispersed sites. Mostly, arrays of multiple sites tend to fill up the low power output levels of an individual site during the day. Besides, the output from an array consisting of a total of N wind …

Ensuring Security of Supply while Decarbonizing Islanded Heavy Industrial Electricity Systems
… sector with analytical rigor. Advanced capacity expansion models provide the tools for this task. In this thesis, the GenX model is employed to study Taiwan’s electricity system—an islanded, industrially-intensive grid—evaluating the evolution of its capacity mix, generation profile, …

A methodology for evaluating photovoltaic-fuel hybird energy systems
… aim of the planning study is to determine the capacity credit of a PV system based on the loss of load probability (LOLP). Long term SOLMET data is used to determine the nature of available insolation at a particular site. The expected value of hourly insolation is used in the planning study. …

A technique to incorporate the impacts of demand side management on generation expansion planning
… The capability of the new model to calculate the capacity credit is also presented. As a result of its ability to represent energy under load duration curve, the new model is inserted into WASP computer program to calculate the production cost. Results obtained from the new model (modified WASP) …
