Abstract
Beyond any doubt, we may consider century 21st as the one devoted to renewable energy. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA) [1], Renewable Energy Sources shall provide about 35 % of the European Union’s (EU) electricity by 2020, and within this context, wind energy is set to contribute the most – nearly 35 % – of all the power coming from renewable sources. This evolution is based on sustainability scenarios, like the BLUE one [2] related to the reduction of greenhouse emissions. However, the appropriate integration of such renewable energy into power networks still presents major challenges to Power Systems Operators (PSO) and planners.
