Analysis Timeline
Renewables Integration – Lessons Learned
System level - Most installations wind & solar. - Maintaining grid operations biggest challenge.
Transmission level - Renewables remote from load, creating T-issues.
Distribution level - Significant impacts on distribution protection.
>20% penetration starts to
become problematic 10
How to reduce integration costs?
How to simplify system protection?
How to simplify operations for operators?
How to add predictive load curves?
How to add predictive health monitoring?
How to manage as utility revenue source?
11
Challenges / Opportunities
Integration Example – Lanai PV Intermittent Renewable
Economic drivers, isolated grids, faster penetration
PV Application - One project can drive “%
penetration” above 20% 3.5 MW peak
~4 MW generation
1 MV PV

EXAMPLE - Geothermal (Base Load Renewable) St Kitts-Nevis-Puerto Rico HVDC Feasibility Study
Connection routes - North or south? - Include St Croix? - Distance estimates HVDC terminals, mono or bi-polar, etc? Cable size / capacity Voltage levels, losses Capital costs for cables and terminals Impacts on power system at all terminals Cost savings / displaced fuels / other benefits

Topics Part 1 – T&D System Challenges
& Opportunities
Part 2 – Effects of Solar on the Distribution System
Part 3 – Role of the Smart Grid
16
Reduce conductor loading
Reduce losses
Delay capital upgrades
Improve voltage control (access to inverter controls)
17
Distribution PV – Benefits
Example - Distribution Feeder
18
Distribution - 7.2 MW Peak - 12.47 kV Rating - 4.3 km (3-phase) - 1 Transformer
PV Site - 1.18 MW - 1.0 PF
Peak Demand Reduced & Shifted
