Impact of Improved Solar Forecasts on Bulk Power System Operations in ISO-NE (Presentation): NREL (National Renewable Energy Laboratory)

Anthony Florita, Brian Hodge

Research output: NRELPresentation

Abstract

The diurnal nature of solar power is made uncertain by variable cloud cover and the influence of atmospheric conditions on irradiance scattering processes. Its forecasting has become increasingly important to the unit commitment and dispatch process for efficient scheduling of generators in power system operations. This presentation is an overview of a study that examines the value of improved solar forecasts on Bulk Power System Operations.
