An Analytical Approach to the Economical Assessment of Wind Distributed Generators Penetration in Electric Power Systems with Centralized Thermal Generation

This paper presents an approach for economical assessment related to the penetration of wind power generators in electric power networks. The proposed method is based on analytical formulation that considers the uncertainties involved with wind speed and load demand. The results show that the methodology also permits the analysis of distributed wind generators insertion considering different technical and economical parameters.
