description Electric demand in the last few years has widely increased, especially in Iraq, where there is a significant difference between the generation and the load in almost all months of the year, particularly in the summer season. One of the important aspects where the operational engineers must take appropriate action in case of an unforeseen catastrophe is power system security. Consequently, the security of the power system depends on the contingency analysis. In order to investigate the impact of wind power on the contingency analysis, three wind farms (WFs) are selected based on the wind's speed availability in Iraq, which are Shaikh Saad, Al-Dujaili, and Al-Fajar. In addition, the wind speeds for these locations are analysed using the Weibull and Rayleigh probability density functions. In this regard, this paper studied and analysed the impact of integrating wind power on the operation of the 132 kV Iraqi grid systems (zone 18). The results show that when line outage contingencies occur (single- and double-line outages), the risk of power flow violations based on the MVA rating will be reduced when integrating wind energy with a 100% integration rate with the Iraqi grid system. Matlab, a programming language, and the Power System Simulator for Engineering (PSS/E) software (Version 32) are used to simulate the proposed approach of integrating wind power into the grid.
