Revolutionizing Power Grids: Wind Energy and Storage for Reliable Operation
The article discusses how to make power grids with wind energy more reliable by using energy storage devices. The researchers created mathematical models and computational techniques to analyze the grids. They found that adding energy storage devices can help reduce the negative effects of wind power variability on the grid. By placing these devices strategically, the power grid can operate more reliably. The researchers also developed simple models to study statistical properties of power grids with wind power and estimate their reliability.
