- Abstract
With the introduction of renewable energy sources, the existing power system is being affected. The power flows are not meeting the requirements due to the intermittent nature of renewable energy sources. Therefore, it is significant to calculate their effects on the power system components prior to their large integration into the Grid. In this paper, the effect of the large power integration of Photo Voltaic (PV) sources is analyzed. A typical power system model is considered for the analysis. Four different featured generators with two PV power sources are considered whose output is varied. The ramping rates of the generators are calculated for the prescribed conditions. The data considered are mere to the real data. Simulink model is developed to find the effect. It shows that, there is frequent ramping rates on the conventional generators due to the intermittent nature. The ramp up/down impacts the performance of the generators. There is a necessity of quick acting generators to keep the system stable. This paper also identifies the necessity of ancillary services having higher ramping rates.
