Abstract

As renewable electricity generation is increasing, several concerns are addressed by the Transmission System Operators (TSO) towards the management and the security of the electrical grid. This paper reviews solutions to ease the integration of renewable energy in the electrical systems through enhanced supervision of renewable generation as well as utilisation of short term or medium term storage system. Amount these solutions, supervision and storage allow to smooth output power, avoid congestion and participate in primary frequency control. Dynamic power system simulations are shown to illustrate the efficiency of the supervision methods.
