Product Description

AWEA Wind Power Transmission Workshop
March 17 - 18, 2009
Overland Park, KS

Transmission is the biggest long term barrier to significant wind energy expansion, and is already leading to significant challenges for developers in the US. This workshop explored ways wind and transmission companies could make more use of existing transmission capacity, work through the logjams in interconnection queues, and expand transmission capacity.

Topics covered include:

Topic Area 1 • Overview

Wind Overview: U.S. (20% Roadmap)
Transmission Overview: U.S.
European perspective
U.S. DOE • grid modernization

Topic Area 2 • Defining the Challenges

Interconnection queue logjams
Developing in areas remote from the grid
Penetration limits and ancillary service charges
Interconnection requirements such as voltage ride-through and reactive power
Process for designing and permitting new transmission
Energy storage technologies, hydro-wind integration, and PHEVs

Topic Area 3 • Opportunities for using the grid better

Making new transmission products work for wind companies and transmission providers—conditional firm service, redispatch, curtailment, and dynamic line ratings
Grid optimization mechanisms
Forecasting and scheduling methods
Mechanisms for dealing with constraints, how to structure
PPAs and tariffs to address constraints and cover risks and making this known to developers Probably focus on case studies in several regions and states/provinces

Topic Area 4 • Expanding transmission to better accommodate wind

Models of successful proactive transmission development
Promising large high voltage plans in US
Transmission cost recovery and siting policies to advance proactive transmission

Topic Area 5 • Reliable and reasonable interconnection standards

What’s next in Interconnection Standards?
Perspective of transmission providers, developers, manufacturers relative to interconnection
