Wind Systems in IndiaWind Systems in India� 5th largest wind power capacity of 9587.14

MW.

� Accounts to 6.2% of installed power capacityand 2% of generated power.and 2% of generated power.

� Average growth rate per year of 27%.

� Estimated to be 15600 MW by 2012.

� Most of them are off-grid Systems.

Necessity of IntegrationNecessity of Integration

� With increasing Energy Demand andconstraints on fossil fuels, renewablesources have to be used.

Integration into the grid is a necessary� Integration into the grid is a necessaryprocess for efficient use of renewablesources.

� Geographical dispersion of wind systemswill quantify their intermittent output.

� Supply power in close balance to demandmanaging fluctuations and breakdowns.

� Operational reserves like spinningreserves ensure that the plant copes upreserves ensure that the plant copes upwith fluctuations.

� Though aggregation smoothens variationsbut the overall load varies with powerneeds.

ChallengesChallenges

� Additional short-term reserves will beneeded to guarantee the security of thesystem.

� Capacity credit of wind energy is very low.

� At lower demand levels plants areconstrained off leading to increase in costthe renewable energy.

General Remedial StrategiesGeneral Remedial Strategies� Operators need not rely on the full rated

power.

� Remaining part can be used as short termreserve instead of spinning reserve.reserve instead of spinning reserve.

� Better wind forecasting techniques need tobe developed.

� Transmission system planning methods haveto be refined.

Storage TechnologiesStorage Technologies� Wind power is always combined with

suitable storage technology.

� This makes it a virtual conventional powerplant.plant.

� Most suited technology for this purpose isthe Compressed Air Energy Storage(CAES)method.

� Tested and commercially available .

ConclusionConclusion� Integration into the grid is compulsory to ensure

ongoing increase in wind power.

� Substantial strain and control reserve are majorchallenges.

� Proper use of intraday markets is more economical.

� CAES is a suitable utility.

� Research has to be done short-term load fore castingtechniques.
