By use of the implemented solution, wind power can consequently be confronted to operational constraints related to high-powered thermal units, nuclear parks or cogeneration. Moreover, in order to optimize the large-scale integration of wind power production, the required reinforcements on a given electrical grid can also be evaluated on basis of the presented developments. The elaborated strategy can practically be applied to every kind of nonsequential Monte Carlo approach used to technically analyze a given transmission system. In the context of this work, the proposed solution has been implemented into the simulation tool Scanner# (property of Tractebel Engineering – Gaz de France – Suez company). Finally, in order to point out the efficiency and the usefulness of the proposed wind power model, the developed simulation tool has been firstly applied to an academic test system: the Roy Billinton test system (RBTS). Afterwards, in order to fully access the large offshore wind potential in the North Sea, the same tool has been used to evaluate the onshore reinforcements required in the Belgian transmission network.

Vaessen","doi":"10.1002/ETEP.563","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1002/ETEP.563","url":null,"abstract":"SUMMARY Due to the unbundling of the electricity sector and simultaneously the growing interest in distributed generation, the uncertainty in operation and planning has increased for distribution network operators. To avoid uneconomic investments, flexible solutions are needed. For this, the concept of intelligent nodes is proposed, which is an application of multiple converters with back-to-back connections. This contribution addresses the control aspects for one of its specific operation conditions: the transition from supplying a radial feeder with loads and/or generation into controlling the power flow in a meshed network without loss of supply. The theoretical framework is described, followed by the measurement results of a laboratory-scale demonstration.
