Abstract: Recent 10 to 20 years, more people observe the importance of the environment protection based on the change of weather. Therefore, the demand of renewable energy becomes larger and larger nowadays. However, most of the renewable energy technologies also have their disadvantages that make them can not substitute the traditional energy technologies like fossil fuel and etc. For solving the problem of the renewable energy technologies’ disadvantages the people still continues to find a lot of ways to make the renewable energy technologies become more competitive. In this report it will mainly touch the area about one of the ways for making one of the renewable energy technologies wind power generation become more competitive. For wind power generation the main problem is the variation of the wind that including wind speed, wind direction and etc. The secondary problems include the turbine efficiency, total efficiency of the total wind turbine, accident probability and etc. For treating these problem one of the good ways is using wind forecast. The wind forecast is through using the different type data about the wind power generation for doing the prediction of the output power from wind power generation to make it more effective and efficient. For getting more knowledge how the wind forecast to make wind power generation become competitive this report will mainly discuss the wind forecast impact on power system operations. For achieving this report it will use the study of different wind forecast technologies, own wind forecast model, simulation and comparison to investigating the wind forecast impact on power system operations.
