With the rapid increase of the penetration rate of renewable energy sources in power system, the decrease of system inertia will threaten the frequency stability, and the dispersion of frequency response cannot be ignored. This paper proposes a method to estimate area inertia of power system containing wind power considering dispersion of frequency response. Firstly, the impact of inertia distribution between areas on the frequency stability and the inter-area oscillation are analysed. Secondly, the system is divided based on the spectral clustering algorithm and the frequency similarity index is defined according to the Pearson correlation coefficient to determine the measurement locations for area frequency. Thirdly, the measured tie-line power and frequency deviation are used to estimate the area inertia based on the numerical integration method. Finally, the case study is conducted based on the modified IEEE 39-bus system. The simulation results revealed that the proposed method is accurate and reliable in different scenarios.
