Title: Impact of Utility-Scale Distributed Wind on Transmission-Level System Operations

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/1159355· OSTI ID:1159355

This report presents a new renewable integration study that aims to assess the potential for adding distributed wind to the current power system with minimal or no upgrades to the distribution or transmission electricity systems. It investigates the impacts of integrating large amounts of utility-scale distributed wind power on bulk system operations by performing a case study on the power system of the Independent System Operator-New England (ISO-NE).
