  9. Technical Economics & Practicality Infrastructure, Regulatory Policy & Incentives Additional Effort Needed

  10. Technical • Testing & analysis of grid effects • Communications & control technologies & algorithms • Day-ahead forecasting • Storage technologies • Management systems for intermittency • …and fuel cell R&D -- including reformers, hydrogen storage, & transportation

  11. Economics • Cost has come down… • but remains high for most renewables • Wind, geothermal and biomass all can be competitive • Solar PV continues to improve • Efficiency improvements and cost reductions still very important

  12. Infrastructure, Policy & Incentives For distributed renewables………. • Standardize interconnection, permitting and other requirements & processes..(predictability, time, $) • Incentivize utilities…identify benefits in power quality, reliability & security for dispatchable DR • Encourage & support full service providers …avoid the hassle of being an ‘energy provider’ • Expand installer & inspector corps and training • Incentive programs help…buy-downs, taxes

  13. Infrastructure, Policy & Incentives For large, central renewable systems…. • Limited market • no new contracts • no new direct access customers • Utilities have no incentive to buy renewable power
