Managing 3000 MW wind power in a transmission system operation center
Abstract
Based on experience from the ongoing data acquisition from about 230 wind turbines (WTs) in the framework of the "Scientific Measurement and Evaluation Program (WMEP) within the "250 MW Wind" programm, ISET has developed an improved model for the extrapolation of the total WT power output from representative online data in this grid area. The presentation of the online-monitoring system was part of a project of the 'EXPO 2000' world exhibition. In co-operation with the E.ON Netz GmbH, Lahmeyer International GmbH (LI), and the Fördergemeinschaft Windenergie (FGW), ISET develops a model for the short term prediction of the total wind power feed-in of large utility supply areas. based on only a few locations with predicted meteorological data. This paper will give a detailed description of the online model, which is used at E.ON's central grid operation centre in order to monitor 3200 MW wind capacity for the system demand control. Furthermore the paper will describe the new prediction model and present experiences, results and assessments as well as new areas of application.
