Abstract :
This article focuses on the latest trends and enhancements emerging in system operations as wind penetrations grow. We discuss technical improvements, current and pending market changes for very high levels of variable generation, the value of forecasting improvements, and the collaborative work that may lead to improved forecasting. This is work at the cutting edge, gathering the latest examples that the authors believe to be of special interest, and we expect this area to remain vibrant and dynamic for many years to come.
