Technical Challenges for Wind Plant Interconnections (3C)<br />

(Room B309 – Transmission Track)<br />

Wind plants pose various technical challenges as it relates to interconnection. Presenters in this session will<br />

investigate and discuss these challenges, including voltage control, subsynchronous interactions, frequency<br />

regulation requirements, and application of wind plant dynamic simulation models.<br />

Prepare for the Best: Resource Assessment at 100 GW (3D)<br />

(Room B312 – Resource Assessment Track)<br />

If industry targets for wind project installations are realized, the fundamental nature of wind resource assessments<br />

will change drastically between now and five years from now. Panelists leading this session will disclose what U.S.<br />

resource assessment might look like at 100,000 MW, question traditional measurement techniques, and discuss<br />

how wake models will capture the effects of these mega-developments. Other topics include high-density wind<br />

project optimization, resource assessment as it related to project financing, and utility and grid operator<br />

requirements.<br />

Real World Impacts of Distributed Wind (3E)<br />

(Room B314 – Community & Distributed Wind Track)<br />

This session demonstrates the strength and value that Distributed Wind brings to our economy, and its contribution<br />

to the entire wind market. Using real world examples, expert speakers examine the importance of distributed wind’s<br />

role in emerging and domestic markets, and best practices in financing projects and vendor partnerships. Of special<br />
