Abstract

Controlled curtailment of variable energy resources can play a valuable role in meeting power system flexibility needs in California. Prospective VER curtailment is shown to reduce the occurrence of unserved energy due to lack of power system flexibility. VER curtailment can serve as a ‘default’ solution against which to measure the benefits of investment in flexible resources.
