Accelerating the transformation of power systems Flexible Coal Evolution from Baseload to Peaking Plant
@inproceedings{Lew2015AcceleratingTT, title={Accelerating the transformation of power systems Flexible Coal Evolution from Baseload to Peaking Plant}, author={Debra Lew}, year={2015} }
The experience cited in this paper is from a generating station with multiple units located in North America referred to here as the CGS plant. For commercial reasons, the station has not been identified. Twenty-first century power systems, with higher penetration levels of low-carbon energy, smart grids, and other emerging technologies, will favor resources that have low marginal costs and provide system flexibility (e.g., the ability to cycle on and off to follow changes in variable renewable…
