System Economy Improvement and Risk Shortening by Fuel Cell-UPFC Placement in a Wind-Combined System

It is important to understand the features of an integrated renewable energy power system, especially for deregulated systems. The greatest obstacle to assimilating renewable energy generators with the existing electrical system is their unpredictability. Because wind energy is inconsistent, incorporating it into an established power system necessitates more planning. The effects of wind farm (WF) incorporation with fuel cells and a unified power flow controller (UPFC) on electric losses, voltage profile, generating price, and the economics of the system in a deregulated power market are examined in this paper. An impact analysis of integrating wind farms into controlled and uncontrolled situations is conducted. At two randomly selected locations in India, the real-time statistics of the actual wind speed (AWS) and forecasted wind speed (FWS) were merged for this study. The surplus charge rate and deficit charge rate are intended to evaluate the imbalance cost which is arising from the difference between anticipated and true wind speeds to determine the economics of the system. Customers are always trying to find electricity that is reliable, inexpensive, and efficient due to the reconfiguration of the power system. As a consequence, the security limitations of the system may be surpassed or might function beyond the safety limit, which is undesirable. In the last section, heuristic algorithms, such as sequential quadratic programming (SQP), artificial bee colony algorithms (ABC), and moth-flame optimization algorithms (MFO), are employed to analyze economic risk. In the real-time energy market, it also covers how the fuel cells and UPFC are utilized to rectify the WF integration's deviation. Economic risk evaluation approaches include value-at-risk (VaR) and conditional value-at-risk (CVaR). A modified IEEE 30-bus test system is used throughout the whole project.
