description

The proposed paper is part of a research aimed at assessing the impact of wind generation on the transmission grid of Sicily, second among the Italian regions for wind power installed. After describing the current state of wind energy generation in Sicily, the paper reports and comments the results of the steady-state security analysis done for various scenarios of wind penetration. For each scenario (maximum and minimum load conditions), the redistribution of power flows on the transmission network, the voltage profiles at nodes, the analysis of contingencies and losses variations are reported.
