4 Key Issues for Wind Power Financial markets Policy Uncertainty Supply chain/workforce Siting and Permitting: avian, noise, visual, federal land * Transmission: FERC rules, tariffs, new lines, PMA s Operational impacts: variability, ancillary services, forecasting, cost allocation Accounting for non-monetary value: green power, no fuel price risk, reduced emissions and water use
