TLDR
In this article, the results of the IEA WIND R&D Task 25 on "Design and Operation of Power Systems with Large Scale Energy Storage" are compared with the results reported in this paper.
Abstract
There are dozens of studies made and ongoing related to wind integration. However, the results are not easy to compare. IEA WIND R&D Task 25 on 'Design and Operation of Power Systems with Large ...

Grid flexibility and storage required to achieve very high penetration of variable renewable electricity

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the changes to the electric power system required to incorporate high penetration of variable wind and solar electricity generation in a transmission constrained grid, where different mixes of wind, solar photovoltaic and concentrating solar power meet up to 80% of the electric demand.

The Market Value of Variable Renewables

Lion Hirth
- 01 Jul 2013 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a comprehensive discussion of the market value of variable renewable energy (VRE) and how the inherent variability of wind speeds and solar radiation affects the price that VRE generators receive on the market (market value).

Evaluation of Power System Flexibility

TL;DR: In this article, the insufficient ramping resource expectation (IRRE) metric is proposed to measure power system flexibility for use in long-term planning, and is derived from traditional generation adequacy metrics.

Impacts of Wind Power on Thermal Generation Unit Commitment and Dispatch

TL;DR: In this paper, the impacts of large-scale wind power on system operations from cost, reliability, and environmental perspectives are assessed using a time series of observed and predicted 15-min average wind speeds at foreseen onshore and offshore-wind farm locations.

Impact of wind generation on the operation and development of the UK electricity systems

TL;DR: In this article, an assessment of the costs and benefits of wind generation on the UK electricity system is carried out, assuming different levels of wind power capacity, and it is concluded that the system will be able to accommodate significant increases in wind power generation with relatively small increases in overall costs of supply, about 5% of the current domestic electricity price.

Design and operation of power systems with large amounts of wind power

TL;DR: There are already several power systems coping with large amounts of wind power as mentioned in this paper, and the impacts that have to be manage through proper plant interconnection, integration, and management of wind energy.

Impact of hourly wind power variations on the system operation in the Nordic countries

TL;DR: In this article, the authors estimate the increase in hourly load-following reserve requirements based on real wind power production and synchronous hourly load data in the four Nordic countries in order to study the system as a whole: only the net imbalances have to be balanced by the system.

Using Standard Deviation as a Measure of Increased Operational Reserve Requirement for Wind Power

TL;DR: In this paper, the use of standard deviation as a measure of reserve requirement is studied and the confidence level given by ±3-6 times and #x1d6d4; is compared to other means of deriving the extra reserve requirements over different operating time scales.
