Wind generation impact on electricity generation adequacy and nuclear safety

The obtained results show that the introduction of wind generating units in the power system results in the change of the Loss of load probability. The obtained Loss of load probability depends on the uncertainty of the peak load size and the wind speed shape parameters. The increase of the share of the wind generation in the power system results in increased Loss of load probability. The change of the generation adequacy results in the change of the risk of the nuclear power plants. Substitution of the nuclear power plants with wind generating units results in small decrease of overall risk within the analysed power system.
