Global installed wind energy
capacity has increased from 2,500 MW in 1992 to over 40,000 MW at the
beginning of 2004 at an annual growth rate of nearly 30%. Over 75% of
this capacity has been installed in Europe. Characteristic of the wind
power growth in Europe is the fact that in 1997, the European Commission
had set as a target to see 40,000 MW of capacity to be installed, as late
as 2010. Industry estimates now suggest that 75,000 MW will be installed
by this time, generating approximately 167 TWh per year.
Penetration levels in electricity production have reached 20% in Denmark,
and about 5% in Germany and Spain. The North-German state of Schleswig
Holstein has 1,800 MW of installed capacity, enough to meet 30% of the
region’s total electricity demand, while in Navarra 50% of consumption
is met by wind power. In Crete, wind power penetration has exceeded instantaneously
40%. It is clear that this level of wind power penetration introduces
considerable complexities in the power system operation due to the intermittent
nature of wind. Economic Scheduling functions are based on the prediction
of demand that has to be satisfied and the additional uncertainty in available
generation capacity creates obvious difficulties with direct economic
effects. This calls for new techniques in scheduling power system operation,
i.e. unit commitment and economic dispatch need to be revisited. Reliability
evaluation and on-line dynamic security assessment become even more important.
Intermittency makes participation of wind power in open markets a challenging
problem. Finally, the economic evaluation of wind power needs to be assessed.
In this course
the following issues will be addressed:
• Overview of Wind Power in Europe
• Wind Power Forecasting
• Dynamic Security
• Unit Commitment and Economic Dispatch
• Reliability
• Connection Issues
• Dynamic Analysis
• Utility Experiences
• Effects on Economic Operation

Prof.
Nikos Hatziargyriou (nh@power.ece.ntua.gr
)
Nikos Hatziargyriou was born in Athens, Greece in January
1954. Since 1995, he is Professor at the Power Division of the Department
of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the National Technical University
of Athens.
He received the Diploma in Electrical and Mechanical Engineering from
the National Technical University of Athens (1976) and the MSc (1979)
and PhD (1982) degrees in Electrical Engineering from the University of
Manchester Institute of Science and Technology (UMIST) in England.
In 1976 he worked as Project Engineer at Shell Oil Company and from 1979
to 1981 as a researcher at UMIST. The research projects were related to
interactive power system analysis. From 1982 until 1984 he worked as Analyst
and Computer Programmer at the Hellenic Air Force. From 1984 he is working
at the Power Division of the Electrical Engineering Department of the
National Technical University of Athens, where he is full professor. Currently,
he is teaching Power System Analysis (Steady State and Transient Analysis),
Renewable Energy Sources and Energy Management Systems. He has also taught
Electrical Machines, Economic Power System Planning and Operation, Digital
Techniques for Power System Analysis and Control and Computer Programming
techniques. He has participated or participates in more than 30 research
projects, funded by the European Commission, the General Secretariat for
Research and Technology, the Public Power Corporation of Greece, the Center
for Renewable Energy Sources (CRES), the Electricity Authority of Cyprus,
the British Council and various private companies including CEGELEC/INTRASOFT,
Groupe Schneider/ELVIM, INESC, AMBER, etc. These projects are related
to power system modelling and analysis for operation and design, Dispersed
and Renewable Generation, load frequency control of the Greek system,
static and dynamic data validation for the Energy Management System of
Greece, wind power integration studies, lightning protection of Wind Turbines,
power system optimal operation and control, etc. He is author of 2 books
and more than 150 publications in international magazines and conference
proceedings.
Dr. Hatziargyriou is member of the Conference Internationale des Grands
Reseaux Electriques a Haute Tension (CIGRE), was Greek Member of Study
Committee 38 "System Analysis and Techniques", member of Advisory
Group 38.02 "Power System Dynamic Performance and Analysis",
convener of AG 38.06 “Models for Load Interaction with Bulk Generation/Transmission
Systems”, Convener of TF38.01.10 “Modelling of new forms of
Generation and Storage”, currently Greek Member of Study Committee
C6 "Distribution Systems and Dispersed Generation" ,and member
of various CIGRE Task Forces. He is also Senior Member of the Institute
of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), member of the Power Engineering
Society and member of subcommittees and working groups of IEEE. He is
currently Chapter Representative of the South East Zone of Region 8 and
Chairman of the Greek Section. He has been chairman of two international
conferences (MedPower02 and ISAP03), active member of several technical
committees and working groups of the Technical Chamber of Greece, a member
of organizing committees of various workshops, seminars and conferences
and reviewer in technical magazines of IEEE, IEE, IJEEE, IASTED etc. and
various international conferences.
