A mechanism of intraday market design for promoting wind power integration

Wind power generation has been developing rapidly in recent years. Therefore, the mechanism for promoting wind power integration becomes increasingly important. In this paper, a novel mechanism of intraday market is proposed, which can utilize updating information of wind power and effectively exploit the shiftable load. The mechanism is compatible with the existing market framework, and promotes wind power producers (WPPs) to be more competitive in the market. Thus, the WPPs could make decisions for multiple market transactions in various trading timescales according to the market price. Moreover, the WPPs can optimize their decisions continuously in the intraday market at different time points in the model. The case study on IEEE-RTS verifies the proposed method is valid and feasible. It can support wind power integration and increase the benefit of the whole system as well.
