Power imbalances<br />

Power imbalances could be caused when the produced<br />

wind power is lower or higher than the needed wind power<br />

to serve the system load.<br />

Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) used to charge all<br />

generators, including wind developers, $100/MWh when<br />

they failed to deliver scheduled power and caused power<br />

imbalances. In 2002, BPA stopped this power imbalance<br />

penalty for wind developers.<br />

Eltra, the utility serving western Denmark that has the<br />

largest wind penetration in the world as compared to the<br />

size of its power system, conducted power imbalance<br />

studies and the conclusion is that Eltra has to look new<br />

ways to handle excess generation when wind generation<br />

exceeds the load requirements of western Denmark.<br />
