The future impact of wind on BPA power system ancillary services
Yuri V. Makarov,Shuai Lu,Bart McManus,J. Pease +3 more
- 21 Apr 2008
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a methodology to study the future impact of wind power on BPA power system ancillary services including load following and regulation, which can be used to evaluate generator response or maneuverability and energy requirement, respectively.

Electric grid balancing through lowcost workload migration
David Chiu,Christopher Stewart,Bart McManus +2 more
- 04 Jan 2012
TL;DR: This paper presents a real grid balancing problem experienced in the Pacfic Northwest, and proposes a symbiotic relationship between data centers and grid operators by showing that mutual cost benefits can be accessible and argues for a low cost workload migration mechanism.

Improving area control error diversity interchange (ADI) program by incorporating congestion constraints
Ning Zhou,Pavel Etingov,Yuri V. Makarov,Ross T. Guttromson,Bart McManus +4 more
- 19 Apr 2010
TL;DR: A two-step linear programming (LP) ADI approach that incorporates congestion constraints and features, such as avoiding line limit violations and increasing the degree of possible ACE sharing, are observed for the proposed LP ADI.

Calculating Individual Resources Variability and Uncertainty Factors Based on Their Contributions to the Overall System Balancing Needs
TL;DR: This work proposes a new allocation mechanism for variability and uncertainty of resources regardless of their type, based on a new formula, called the grid balancing metric (GBM), based on actual transmission system operator (TSO) data.

Possible improvements of the ACE diversity interchange methodology
Pavel Etingov,Ning Zhou,Yuri V. Makarov,Jian Ma,Ross T. Guttromson,Bart McManus,Clyde Loutan +6 more
- 25 Jul 2010
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a possible improvement to the ADI algorithm that incorporates transmission limits, which would additionally increase the maximum depth and the overall efficiency of the ACE sharing schemes, without creating congestion problems.
