Figure 4-1. Summary <strong>of</strong> Hourly, Year-long Wind Test Data<br />
To ascertain the value <strong>of</strong> inc<strong>or</strong>p<strong>or</strong>ating energy st<strong>or</strong>age within the wind farm, an optimization<br />
calculation using hourly wind data and the above electricity rates was conducted to first identify<br />
the maximum revenue stream <strong>f<strong>or</strong></strong> the wind farm without inc<strong>or</strong>p<strong>or</strong>ating energy st<strong>or</strong>age (windonly),<br />
and then with energy st<strong>or</strong>age (wind+ES). This process showed that the wind generat<strong>or</strong><br />
would maximize revenue with an on-peak firm power supply contract <strong>of</strong> 1.9MW <strong>f<strong>or</strong></strong> wind-only.<br />
The optimal on-peak contract amount is increased to 4.4MW when 17.2MWh energy st<strong>or</strong>age<br />
capacity per cycle is inc<strong>or</strong>p<strong>or</strong>ated. The value <strong>of</strong> energy st<strong>or</strong>age <strong>f<strong>or</strong></strong> these conditions is<br />
represented by the incremental benefit in annual revenue summarized in Table 4-5.<br />

Since examination <strong>of</strong> data also shows that the energy st<strong>or</strong>age system is not being used about 25%<br />
<strong>of</strong> the time, including AGC functions during those periods can further increase its value. This<br />
value element would increase annual revenue by $58K, assuming operation in AGC mode <strong>f<strong>or</strong></strong> 16<br />
hours per day, 90 days per year. On this basis, the NPV <strong>of</strong> the NAS system without<br />
consideration <strong>of</strong> AGC is negative ($0.1M) and with AGC it is positive ($0.6M). Costs and<br />
benefits <strong>f<strong>or</strong></strong> these options are summarized as follows:<br />
