Abstract

Wind power generation is a renewable source that has grown in terms of energy generation contribution to electrical power systems in the last few years. In this sense, there is a huge interest in the integration of this kind of source in the electrical network. Once large wind power potential in general is located far way from the load centers, it is important to consider bulk power transmission corridors over long distances. In this work, the wind power integration through the half-wavelength transmission line is evaluated. Electromagnetic transient study is implemented to analyze the characteristics of this system. The results prove the robustness of the half-wavelength transmission alternative.
