There is a continuous discussion going on concerning the integration cost of wind power. The integration cost can, for example, be defined as the extra costs in the rest of the system when wind power is introduced, compared with the situation without wind power. The result of the studies depends...

Accuracy of wind potential estimation using two-parameter Weibull distribution relies on the accuracy with which Weibull distribution models the wind data. Therefore, there is always a thirst for developing better methods for the estimation of Weibull parameters. Current work focusses on the...

This work presents a Bayesian approach for inferring the capacity factor of an offshore wind farm. The application of the proposed methodology is illustrated through a case study of a wind power offshore project located on the northern coast of the Rio de Janeiro State.

Generators bid into the deregulated electricity market in order to get committed & dispatched for meeting demands. In order to maximize their revenues & minimize the cost, systematic planning of the resources and analyzing the results is crucial to the success of any generation utility. UPLAN...
