Grid Integration of Renewable Energy: Technology Status and Priorities |

Background: |
Many countries target an increase in the role of renewable energy sources (RES) in their energy
portfolios. Consequently the efficient integration of RES sourced electricity into transmission and
distribution systems is of high priority. To this end it is likely that transmission networks, the rules by
which they operate, and markets will need to be modified to take into account the specific
characteristics of renewables. See related workshop on Trading and Transmission of Renewable Electricity: a Roundtable |
