Background

Status:	Approved
Date Posted:	Feb 23, 2007
Sponsor:	The Wind Coalition
Urgent:	No
Sections:	2.1, 4.2.2
Description:	1. Add definitions for terms used in more than one section2. Describe the process for developing the 80% confidence level forecast for wind-power generators
Reason:	Discussions in the TPTF pursuant to development of the Requirements document for wind-power forecasting made it clear that there was a disagreement on how to produce the 80% confidence level forecast for each individual wind-power resource. Discussion resulted in general agreement that a "top down" approach had merit, pending the development and review of detailed protocol changes.
