It is of great importance to study the characteristics of wind power output for the healthy and secure & stable of power grid. Based on the actual operating data, the probability distribution of the power fluctuations of the wind farm in Hainanand the variation of wind power annual, seasonal, daily active output is analyzed. The study showed thatHainanProvincehas obvious seasonal variation of wind power output characteristics, higher levels of output of the year generally in winter or summer, spring and autumn to contribute small. The average wind power output will contribute to “low day and high night”, with certain peaking capacity. Shorter time scales, changes in the wind power to smaller amount, not to bring too much impact on system operation, while a long time fluctuations affect the scheduling and running on the grid.
