Transmission Expansion Planning Models for Offshore Wind Energy

Awardee:

Tufts University

Start Date:

Q4, 2021

Technical Challenge Area:

Electrical Power Systems

Completion Date:

N/A (Currently Underway) 

Synopsis:

This project will develop transmission expansion planning (TEP) models that support the exploration of topologies for a future integrated onshore/offshore electricity grid.

Target Outcomes:
