Integrated Assessment Modeling of Grid Resilience: GCAM-to-PCM Scoping
- Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), Richland, WA (United States)
Deep decarbonization towards a net-zero emissions future and the associated growth in power demand, renewables, and changes in water availability will require significant evolution in grid planning. Many obstacles threaten the viability of near-term generation capacity build out, including the need for large-scale transmission expansion. Current very-long term planning tools do not adequately model physical representations of economic dispatch and system topology down to inter- and intra-regional transmission and distribution infrastructure. This project attempts to fill that gap.
