Abstract
⺠Effects of aggregating load across various geographic areas of U.S. are quantified. ⺠Benefits exist for all metrics, but outweighed by additional transmission costs. ⺠Aggregating electric load alone is not economical, except for West and NW U.S. ⺠Limited existing transmission capacity yields highest cost for east-west layout. ⺠Lowest U.S.-wide overall cost when consolidate multiple, small areas.
