Description
Abstract:	Responsive load could significantly aid in the integration of variable generation sources like wind and solar if institutional frameworks can be developed that will induce loads to respond to price or other signals. This paper examines the balancing requirements imposed by large penetrations of wind generation and characterizes them in terms that are relevant for load response. The relative magnitude, frequency, and duration of events are all important, as are ramp rates and notification times.
