Microgrid to enable optimal distributed energy retail and end-user demand response (2018, background): “In particular, Case 2 focuses on the problem of curtailed electric energy [59], when some of the renewable energy generation must be wasted to keep realtime power balance.”
Wind and solar energy curtailment: A review of international experience (2016, background): “9 TWh of generation and substantial estimated solar power curtailments equivalent to more than the 2013 solar production , according to a recent review [6].”
MOD-DR: Microgrid optimal dispatch with demand response (2017, background): “For instance, it can effectively tackle the problem of curtailed electric energy [31], when some of the renewable energy generation must be wasted to keep real-time power balance, by optimally coordinating the load and generation sides.”
Grid Integration of Renewable Energy: Flexibility, Innovation, and Experience (2016, background): “China is experiencing the highest levels of wind curtailment of any jurisdiction, with some provinces curtailing 15–25% of wind power output due to insufficient local demand coupled with lack of transmission capacity to other provinces (2, 136).”
A review of demand side management business models in the electricity market (2015, background): “As an example, the curtailed electrical energy (CEE) of wind and PV resources, carried out to eliminate system imbalance, is analyzed in [46].”
