AVALIAÇÃO DOS REQUISITOS DE RESERVA OPERATIVA EM SISTEMAS DE GERAÇÃO COM ELEVADA PENETRAÇÃO DE ENERGIA EÓLICA

Abstract

This paper proposes a new methodology based on a chronological Monte Carlo simulation to evaluate the operating reserve requirements of generating systems with large amounts of wind energy. The main idea is to build a new probabilistic approach to assess several performance indices bearing in mind the long-term planning. Besides the conventional reliability indices and those obtained from the well-being framework, a new set of indices are proposed to measure the availability of different types of operating reserve. The application of the proposed methodology is illustrated through case studies carried out using some configurations of the IEEE RST-96 reliability test system. Moreover, an example of application to generating maintenance scheduling is shown.
