Abstract

In this paper, an overview of wind power transmission and system integration aspects is presented for the Netherlands. Particular aspects regarding the Netherlands, such as the market organisation with respect to wind power, the technical characteristics of conventional generation units and grid connection of offshore wind power, are discussed in detail. Power system integration of wind power typically comprises local impacts (distribution level), grid connection aspects (perephery of the network), system wide impacts (power balancing), grid codes and market designs.
