Descrição

In this paper the existing technical barriers that prevent the accomplishment of a very high wind generation penetration in a power system are presented. Since several countries and regions in Europe are already experiencing such high wind penetration or, as a minimum, planning their grids and operation strategies to cope with wind penetration from a high to a very high level, the solutions already identified for the most common constraints are also identified.
