Abstract

The integration of renewable energy sources, especially wind energy, has been on the rise throughout power systems worldwide. Due to this relatively new introduction, the integration of wind energy is often not optimized. Moreover, owing to the technical constraints and transmission congestions of the power network, most of the wind energy has to be curtailed. Due to various factors that influence the connectivity of wind energy, this paper proposes a well-organized posterior multi-objective (MO) optimization algorithm for maximizing the connections of wind energy. In this regard, the dynamic thermal rating (DTR) system and the static VAR compensator (SVC) have been identified as effective tools for improving the loadability of the network. The propose MO algorithm in this paper aims to minimize: (1) wind energy curtailment, (2) operation cost of the network considering all investments and operations, also known as the total social cost, and (3) SVC operation cost. The proposed MO problem was solved using the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA) II and it was tested on the modified IEEE reliability test system (IEEE-RTS). The results demonstrate the applicability of the proposed algorithm in aiding power system enhancement planning for integrating wind energy.
