Abstract :
Increasing interest in integrating wind energy, as one of the promising renewable sources, has led to an increase in the uncertainty of power system operation. Probabilistic models are thus necessary to assess the performance of power systems with considerable amounts of wind generation. This paper presents a probabilistic technique for assessing the impact of wind farm location on the penetration level of the wind generation and real-time electricity market prices.
