Jan 2, 2025 · As the penetration of variable renewable energy increases, curtailment of solar photovoltaic (PV) generation will only increase. Since curtailment will almost always be cheaper than investing in new transmission capacity or new grid-scale storage, curtailed energy should be rewarded, so that PV investment decisions can include curtailment as one of the flexibility options for grid operators.
