Assessment of the Time a Power System Remains in the Power Deficit Zone as a Function of the Scale Factor for Wind-Power Plants

Power Technology and Engineering, 2019
The scale factor for the use of power plants of a certain type refers to the fraction of their use in the overall energy balance of the system. Energy production by wind power plants depends directly on the wind conditions in a particular location and is stochastic in character. Increasing the fraction of these installations in the overall balance of a
