Process: Under the auspices of the Wind Integration Study Team, convene a Taskforce of transmission experts to:
1) Identify the limitations on DTC and quantify the threats to system reliability and costs of increased dynamic transfers;
2) Understand differences in methodology for calculating DTC limits;
3) Characterizing the types of use of DTC for different generators (e.g. Wind vs Coal), Loads ( e.g. internal vs remote load) and Schedules (Regulation, Spinning Reserve, Contingency Reserve, 30 minute static & 60 minute static);
4) Identify possible short-term, medium-term and long-term options for reliably increasing DTC in the Pacific Northwest.
