Abstract :
In this work the impact of wind power integration on the power system of Rio Grande do Sul (RS) is analyzed. The impact is analyzed in terms of power flow simulation considering minimum and maximum load conditions. Contingencies are also simulated and the consequence on the power flow is analyzed.
