Abstract

The cost benefits of both wind farm and grid caused by the integration of wind power into grid, as well as the environmental benefit, are quantitatively analyzed, and an optimization model of wind power accommodation is built, which takes the economical efficiency as its objective and considers the constraints of profitability and operational security. The differential evolution algorithm is adopted to solve the model. With RTS79 as an example, the proposed wind power planning method is compared to the traditional one, which considers only the technical factors, and analysis indicates that, the proposed method has smaller wind power accommodation capability but better economy, verifying its effectiveness and practicability.
