The build-out of variable renewable energy concentrated in offshore parks poses new challenges for power grids because generators throughout such wind farms simultaneously experience similar low and high wind extremes. This study investigates the importance of modeling transmission constraints on the resilience of a power grid in two extreme weather conditions: low-wind (“wind drought”) and high-wind (“storm”). We use a simulation-derived wind farm power curve to determine the available wind power production at increasing levels of wind power penetration. The metric of resilience in this study is disconnected load. The time series simulation solves the steady state power flow equations over a 48-hour period at 5-minute intervals to determine the generation profile to supply a constant load. We find that during both low and high wind conditions, grid congestion and voltage deviations limit power imports requiring disconnected load at high wind power penetration. The results indicate that expanded transmission capacity, reactive power control at key buses, and energy storage at wind farm buses could improve grid resilience.
