Abstract The consumption of fossil fuels has increased significantly in recent decades due to the dramatically growth of economy and industry. It causes many environmental problems intensively, especially the global warming problem. Renewable energy sources (RESs), mainly wind and photovoltaic (PV), can be integrated into the power system to reap the gains of clean energy and improve electrical power system performance. However, the stochastic output of large-scale RESs introduces many integration challenges to the power system, especially when replacing the conventional generation by RESs. They are climatic dependent; therefore, they have a highly intermittent and variable generation, which can have a significant impact on the power system’s performance. In addition, most of these sources have low inertia causing many problems in system stability, which could jeopardize the power system. |
