8 Workshop Goals Share experiences and perspectives Discuss current reliability assessment requirements and limitations Examine Smart Grid technologies & potential bulk system impacts Identify future research needs and priorities 8

9 Need for New Reliability Assessment Tools Integration of these new technologies requires changes in the way the bulk power system is planned and operated ed to maintain a reliability. Further, additional tools/models are required to support their integration to meet policy and strategic t goals.
