– Forecasted w<strong>in</strong>d generation (and / or actual w<strong>in</strong>d generation)<br />

variability has its own latency much longer than a cont<strong>in</strong>gency<br />

• <strong>MISO</strong> has experienced loos<strong>in</strong>g w<strong>in</strong>d generation <strong>in</strong> the magnitude of<br />

6000 to 7000 MW <strong>in</strong> about 8 hours (majority of these drops were<br />

forecasted) – In opposite direction to the load variation<br />

• W<strong>in</strong>d generation variation of +/- 2000 MW <strong>in</strong> 20 m<strong>in</strong>utes (rare<br />
