    Reliability evaluation of a composite power system containing wind and solar generation

    , Article Proceedings of the 2013 IEEE 7th International Power Engineering and Optimization Conference, PEOCO 2013 ; 2013 , p. 483-488 ; ISBN: 9781470000000 Ghaedi, A ; Abbaspour, A ; Fotuhi-Firuzabad, M ; Moeini-Aghtaie, M ; Othman, M ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    Variability and uncertainty of wind and photovoltaic (PV) generations greatly influence technical and financial aspects of power systems. This paper examines the potential impacts of large-scale wind and PV farms on reliability level of composite generation and transmission systems. At first, reliability models of renewable-based units are developed. In these models, both component failure rates and uncertainty nature of renewable resources are taken into account. Using the proposed technique, the multi-state analytical models of a wind farm placed in Manjil and a PV farm placed in Jask both in Iran are extracted. Then, reliability studies of high renewable-energies penetrated power system... 

    Incorporating large photovoltaic farms in power generation system adequacy assessment

    Abstract
    Recent advancements in photovoltaic (PV) system technologies have decreased their investment cost and enabled the construction of large PV farms for bulk power generations. The output power of PV farms is affected by both failure of composed components and solar radiation variability. These two factors cause the output power of PV farms be random and different from that of conventional units. Therefore, suitable models and methods should be developed to assess different aspects of PV farms integration into power systems, particularly from the system reliability viewpoint. In this context a reliability model has been developed for PV farms with considering both the uncertainties associated...
