Abstract

In this paper, we propose a methodology for long-term power transmission expansion planning that incorporates the costs associated with the operation of wind power plants. Particularly, we model the transmission expansion planning problem as a mixed-integer linear program in which we incorporate the variability of the wind resource, the impact of wind power operation in the system security and the impact of wind power operation in the reserve market.
