Transmitting Wind Energy - Issues and Options in Competitive Electric Markets (Paperback)

Transmitting Wind Energy: Issues and Options in Competitive Electric Markets is a follow-up to an earlier National Wind Coordinating Committee (NWCC) report, Wind Energy System Operation and Transmission Issues Related to Restructuring, that was published in June 1998. That report was designed to provide an introduction to various utility system and transmission issues that may be of interest to the wind energy community. The NWCC commissioned this Phase 2 report in 1997 to expand upon the transmission issues identified in the earlier report, and a draft of this report was distributed to NWCC members for review in October 1997. This preface explains who the NWCC is, how this report originated, and how this report was prepared.
