My Background

• PNM, Resource Analysis Group: late 1970’s; 13 yearso Alternate renewable energy assessments

o Reeves solar hybrid repowering study and conceptual design

• Sandia National Laboratories, Energy Storage Program: till

December 2011.o Energy storage and micro-grids

o Lead author of DOE Electricity Storage Handbook, 2013

The Electric Grid

• Instantaneously match generation to load• Maintain constant voltage and frequency

• Plan for load growth – capacity additions and T&G upgrades

Page 4: Managing Risk in the Grid with Energy Storage

Types of Risk

• Operational risko Sudden failure of generating unit or loss of transmission pathway

o Sudden changes in renewable energy resources

o Intra-hour load management

• Planning risko Unexpected changes in load growth projections – system and

distribution level

o Distribution and substation upgrades

o Time-of-use or demand charge management – customer level

o UPS functions – customer level
