Abstract
This study presents a stochastic-based approach to evaluate the probabilistic transient stability indices of a power system incorporating wind farms (WFs). In this context, investigations have been conducted on a hypothetical test system representing a typical power system taking into consideration the uncertainties of the factors associated with the practical operation of a power system, namely fault type, fault location, fault impedance, fault clearing process, system parameters and operating conditions and high-speed reclosing process. The effects of the WF sizes and locations on the overall system stability have been investigated. Moreover, this study presents stochastic models for the wind turbine as well as the spring constant of the reduced two-mass shaft model of the wind generator. The time-domain simulations are obtained using the electro-magnetic transient programme.Keywords
