Title: Study of a Wind Farm Power System: Preprint

Conference ·
OSTI ID:15000182

A wind power system differs from a conventional power system. In a conventional power plant, the operator can control the plant's output. The output of a wind farm cannot be controlled because the output fluctuates with the wind. In this paper, we investigate the power-system interaction resulting from power variations at wind farms using steady-state analysis.
