In order to effectively manage this amount of wind in the BPA Balancing Authority Area, methods had to be created to calculate the total reserve needed for current and future wind penetration levels, including trying to accurately forecast the estimated output of future wind projects. Once the needed reserve was calculated, it was found that it would be difficult for BPA to manage this level of wind so multiple initiatives were created to mitigate the issues brought by large scale wind in the BPA Balancing Authority Area.</p> <p>Speakers: Bart McManus has been at BPA for 16 years. He is the wind integration lead for BPA Transmission Operations.</p> <p>Scott Simons has been at BPA for 28 years. He has served as an applications developer, project manager, and has led the transmission scheduling organization.</p> <p>Location: The Portland chapter of PES meetings will be held every third Tuesday of the month. These Meetings will be held at the Lloyd 700 Building, 700 NE Multnomah Boulevard, third floor meeting room A&B. Meetings will start at 12:30 PM and will last for one hour. Also, attending these meetings can be used as equivalent to one PDH for members who need to keep up their professional engineering licenses.
