Description (excerpt):

This report describes the specific capabilities offered by smart grid technologies in resolving some of the challenges in achieving high penetrations of variable renewable resources (VRR). The report describes the relationships between existing smart grid solutions and a range of VRR integration challenges, and smart grid solutions are placed in the larger context of conventional tools for VRR integration. Relevant VRR integration projects from ISGAN member nations are described where applicable, and recommendations for research collaborations are suggested.
