    • Abstract:
      The article focuses on the measures taken by the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) in the Pacific Northwest to address the challenges associated with wind power growth. Among the issues facing BPA are wind integration and cost allocation. Consultant Brandon Kirby expressed his disappointment with the wind integration tariff imposed by BPA. BPA has also improved the persistence scheduling accuracy of the wind fleet from about two hours to one-hour persistence overall.
