System and method to minimize grid spinning reserve losses by pre-emptively sequencing power generation equipment to offset wind generation capacity based on geospatial regional wind conditions

摘要

A system and method to preemptively adjust power generation of one or more non-wind power generators based on near term wind generation capability, spinning reserve margin, and/or power grid spinning reserve forecast requirements to offset wind power generation based on geospatial regional wind conditions.

1. A method comprising:
a. determining a spinning reserve margin for an online electric power grid served by one or more non-wind power generators; b. determining at least one atmospheric or environmental factor influencing wind generation capability for a region associated with the online electric power grid; c. determining, based on the at least one atmospheric or environmental factor, near term wind generation capability of a wind power generation system connected to the online electric power grid; d. determining a power grid spinning reserve forecast requirement; and e. providing instructions to adjust power generation of the one or more non-wind power generators based on the near term wind generation capability, the spinning reserve margin, and/or the power grid spinning reserve forecast requirement.
