Primary Frequency Response Adequacy Study on the U.S. Eastern Interconnection Under High-Wind Penetration Conditions

This paper investigates the primary frequency response adequacy of the U.S. Eastern Interconnection with high-wind penetration in the year 2030. This paper starts with the creation of a realistic baseline dynamic model by validating against synchrophasor measurements. A dynamic simulation is performed to evaluate the impact of high-wind generation on a primary frequency response. Mitigation measures are then investigated.
