Abstract

The load shedding scheme has been extensively implemented as a fast solution for unbalance conditions. Therefore, it's crucial to investigate supply-demand balancing in order to protect the network from collapsing and to sustain stability as possible, however, its implementation is mostly undesirable. One of the solutions to minimize the amount of load shedding is the integration renewable energy resources, such as wind power, in the electric power generation could contribute significantly to minimize power cuts as it is able to positively improve the stability of the electric grid. In this paper propose a method for shedding the load base on the priority demands with incorporating the wind power generated. The higher priority demands are fed with a reliable wind energy resource in order to protect them from shedding under contingency condition such as high overloading by the real-time monitoring of the network. The main objective of this research is to sustain enough power for higher important loads where possible and accurate amount of load shedding while keeping the load under the available power threshold. In such a case, the important loads such as health cares are kept intact without any interruption as possible. The simulation results prove the effectiveness and practicality of the applied method paving the way for possible applications in power systems.
