Abstract :
Large amounts of wind and/or solar energy will have an impact on bulk electricity markets. This panel presentation will provide insight to how scheduling and dispatch rules can help to efficiently integrate wind and solar generation. Possible proxies for wind and solar capacity values that may be useful in capacity markets are also discussed.
