Assessment of Generation Cost of Off-shore Islands by Considering Fuzzy Wind Power Generation Model

This thesis is to investigate the impact of wind power generation to the generation cost of Peng-Hu offshore islands. To find the load characteristics and load composition of Peng-Hu area, the load survey study has been performed to derive the typical load patterns of residential commercial and industrial customer classes. By retriving the power consumption information of all customers from the customer information system (CIS), the load contribution by each customer class during the system peak and off peak periods can be obtained. According to the temperature sensitivity of power consumption, the system load profile can be modified with the temperature change.
With the stochastic wind speed and uncertainty of wind power energy, the nonlinear mathematical modeling of wind power generation has been derived by using the fuzzy theory. The wind power generation can therefore be estimated according to the wind speed variation, which will be used to coordinate with the diesel generators to provide electricity of customers served. With the hourly wind power generation and system load profile, the generation cost of diesel generators is therefore obtained.
To illustrate the effectiveness of wind power generation for the offshore islands, the actual hourly wind speed for year 2003 is used for computer simulation to solve the avoided generation cost resulted from wind generation. It is found that wind power generators can reduce generation cost of diesel and provide the peak power capability.
The cost benefit and incentive of wind power generation for Peng-Hu islands will help Taipower to evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of wind power generation in Taiwan.
