The amount of wind power generation connected to the PJM grid continues to increase, enhancing the opportunities to harness its renewable power. However, because wind is an intermittent resource it requires its own forecasting and monitoring methods to plan for its reliability.

This graphic chart displays both instantaneous power and forecasted power for every five minutes and it is updated hourly. The data is measured at each wind farm every minute and then is aggregated for this tool. Dispatchers use this display to monitor trends in wind power production.
