I think the US uses 10% spinning reserve for generation (might be a NERC requirement?). Some plants (gas and certain hydro) have fast response times. Others (coal, nuke?) have a longer response time. The biggest issue with wind is that the wind gusts so power output is variable. As regards to frequency until your system has enough mass to influence the rest of the grid, the grid frequency is dominate. Even a 2,000 MW generation facility will not influence the grid frequency much, which is why it is important to sync to the grid as you connect. |
