Abstract: The determination of system reserve is a key factor for optimal dispatching of renewable energy and generation planning. The principle of conventional reservation arrangement ignores the impacts of high penetration of renewable energy, which may cause a high risk in system operating. Meanwhile, the current method is too rough that might reduce the acceptable capacity of renewable energy. So, by analyzing the influence of the high penetrated wind power on system reserve and considering the requirements of safe and economic operation and optimal dispatching of the renewable energy, a new method, which is functional in wind power prediction, analysis and determination of system reserve and spinning reserve, is proposed. The feasibility of proposed method is validated by using the real operation data.

Key words: wind power, regulating reserve, spinning reserve, wind power forecasting, optimal dispatching of renewable energy
