Abstract :
Operating reserve in a system is required to make the system capable of handling unforeseen load changes and possible outages of generation. The basic results of an assessment of operating reserve requirements in a small reliability test system are presented. Results are presented for both isolated and interconnected configurations. The results provide a basic understanding of probabilistic assessment of operating reserve requirements and can be included in a power system reliability teaching program
