The impact of wind power on the transient stability of a power system using probabilistic approach

Transient stability is a stochastic problem that is attracting a lot of attention in recent time. Traditionally, transient stability is evaluated using the deterministic method. This method is usually considered for a single contingency. However, the disturbances in a power system are stochastic in nature. The types of disturbance, its location and the time it is cleared are all random process. In this paper, the influence of wind power on these stochastic processes is analysed taking into consideration the wind power generator technology, wind generator location and the wind power penetration level.
