NREL Eastern Wind Integration<br />
<strong>and</strong> Transmission <strong>Study</strong> (EWITS)<br />
Scenario 1, 20% wind penetration – Lowest Cost Wind: Utilizes<br />
high quality wind resources in the Great Plans, with other<br />
development in the east where good wind resources exist. Total<br />
capacity in MISO, MAPP, <strong>and</strong> SPP approximately 185 GW.<br />
Scenario 2, 20% wind penetration – Hybrid, with Offshore: Some<br />
wind generation in the Great Plains is moved east, with capacity<br />
increased in PJM, NYISO, <strong>and</strong> ISO-NE. Some offshore<br />
development in the Northeast t <strong>and</strong> Mid-Atlantic.<br />
ti<br />
Scenario 3, 20% wind penetration – Load-weighted Wind<br />
Development, Aggressive Offshore: More wind is moved east<br />
toward load centers, with much greater offshore development.<br />
