Workshop on Market Design and Operation with Variable Renewables

May 16, 2017 - May 17, 2017

  • « Webinar: Forecasting Applications for Power Systems
  • 2017 Forecasting Workshop »

This workshop will be held May 16-17, 2017 in Fredericia, Denmark and hosted by UVIG member, Energinet.dk.

*Please note: There are a limited number of open spots for this workshop. We suggest registering as soon as possible.

The workshop is intended for utility, wind and solar industry, regulatory, market design and operation, university, and consulting personnel associated with the design and operation of wholesale electricity markets in EU and the US, which will experience a large share of energy from variable renewable generation. The workshop purposes are to:

•  Identify fundamental principles of market design in EU and the US and operation necessary for incorporating a high share of variable renewables (wind and PV) into electricity market operation.

•  Identify the current state of market design in the EU and US as related to incorporating a high share of variable renewables into electricity market operation.

•  Identify the critical needs and a transition path for improved market design and operation with a high share of variable renewables.
