    On the use of pumped storage for wind energy maximization in transmission-constrained power systems

    , Article IEEE Transactions on Power Systems ; Vol. 30, issue. 2 , 2015 , p. 1017-1025 ; ISSN: 8858950 Hozouri, M. A ; Abbaspour, A ; Fotuhi-Firuzabad, M ; Moeini-Aghtaie, M ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    Owing to wind power inherent characteristics and technical constraints of power systems operation, a considerable amount of wind energy cannot be delivered to load centers and gets curtailed. Transmission congestion together with temporal mismatch between load and available wind power can be accounted as the main reasons for this unpleasant event. This paper aims to concentrate on the wind energy curtailment for which it provides a combinatorial planning model to maximize wind power utilization. Jointly operating the wind power generation system with pumped hydro energy storage (PHES), the planning procedure tries to reach schemes with the minimum level of wind energy curtailment as well as...
