Optimization of Power Allocation for a Hybrid Wind-Hydro Power System

With deeper research of wind key technologies, concern on optimization of power allocation for a power system with wind farms has been aroused greatly. A typical hybrid power system interconnected with the main grid, including wind power, hydro power, storage devices and local load, is taken as our study case. Its mathematical model used in optimizing power allocation was firstly constructed, PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization) algorithm was applied to slow the optimization problem and the optimal power allocation is gotten. Finally, numerical simulation is discussed which demonstrated that storage battery with larger capacity will decrease the waste of wind resources, and improve operation performances of the hybrid wind-hydro power system.
