Abstract

The paper deals with aspects related to the impact of connecting wind power plants to NPS, representing an important share in the total generated power, on the development of the new sources and transmission network. At the present moment there are installed not more than 10 MW in wind power plants but Romania faces a large number of connection request from wind power plant investors. Thus it is important do determine the impact of wind power production of 2000-3000 MW in Romanian Power System. The paper indicates the values obtained needed for the additional tertiary reserve as well as regarding the capability to integrate wind power in the demand curve.
