Reliability-based short term scheduling of wind power considering the impacts of electrical vehicles and FIT incentive mechanism

Large integration of intermittent wind generation in power system has necessitated the inclusion of more innovative and sophisticated approaches in power system operation planning. In this paper, Feed-in-Tariff support scheme is used to promote wind generation firm to participate in power market. The high penetration of wind generation in power system resulting from support scheme has significant impacts on system reliability. So, determining the optimum reliability based incentive for wind generation is an important problem which is developed in this paper. In addition, a new concept of wind farm power management by high penetration of electrical vehicles (EVs) technology is investigated which is usually referred to as “vehicle-to-grid (V2G) in this study.
