Wind Energy Forecasting Challenges and Opportunities

Speaker: Bill Mahoney

Abstract: Increasing wind energy's contribution to our nation's electrical supply depends heavily on our ability to accurately predict the wind speed at the height of the wind generators. This talk will discuss how wind forecasts are currently used by the utility industry and challenges and opportunities associated with our national goal of increasing the fraction of wind energy toward 20% by 2030.
