N2 - This paper studies the impact of wind generation on generator rotor angle and inter-area oscillation stability. A comparative simulation study is conducted based on a U.S. Eastern Interconnection (EI) planning model for year 2030. The wind penetration level is 17% of the total generation. Generator critical clearing time (CCT) and inter-area oscillation damping ratio are evaluated. It is observed that rotor angle stability is barely affected while inter-area oscillation damping shows discernible improvement due to wind generation. Possible explanations are then explored.
