An Economic Dispatch Model Incorporating Wind Power
J. Hetzer,D.C. Yu,K. Bhattarai +2 more
TL;DR: A model to include wind energy conversion system (WECS) generators in the ED problem is developed, and in addition to the classic economic dispatch factors, factors to account for both overestimation and underestimation of available wind power are included.

A review of wind speed probability distributions used in wind energy analysis: Case studies in the Canary Islands
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the use of the probability density function (PDF) of wind speed is carried out for a wide collection of models, and the methods that have been used to estimate the parameters on which these models depend are reviewed and the degree of complexity of the estimation is analyzed in function of the model selected.
