Grid-enhancing tech could unlock connection queues, doubling renewable capacity - study
Email In Kansas and Oklahoma, over 5,000MW of wind and solar could be deployed by 2025 using the tech. Image: Getty. Technologies to help tackle grid congestion could double the volume of solar and wind deployed by 2025, according to a new study. The study – undertaken by the Brattle Group on behalf of the WATT Coalition – identifies how three Grid-Enhancing Technologies (GETs) could boost the technologies, using the Southwest Power Pool (SPP) grid as an illustrative case study. It found that renewables curtailments in Kansas and Oklahoma are likely caused by transmiss...
