Variable Generation Forecasting Applications to Power System Planning and Operations

Tom Hoff will provide the results of a CEC/CSI project in which new fleet forecasting methodologies and software technologies are being used to forecast the output of 130,000 PV systems in California. Fleet forecasting is important for load balancing in areas of high-penetration solar.

The UWIG workshop is designed to provide utility, wind and solar industry personnel a better understanding of the value of variable generation forecasting, explore the practical aspects of using forecasting models for scheduling and operating power systems, and gain insight into forecasting developments that are on the horizon.
