LIVE WEBINAR
Navigating Renewable Curtailment with Engie
 

September 3, 2026

1PM ET

Power curtailments continue to pose a growing challenge for power systems worldwide, rising across many regions despite initiatives to ease congestion, as new clean generation outpaces new grid capacity. Solar and wind output is curtailed when supply exceeds local transmission capacity or demand. Yet identical curtailment figures can mask very different causes. This webinar will show how PLEXOS helps diagnose and quantify curtailment, why high-resolution modeling matters for distinguishing its drivers, and what curtailment experience in key markets reveals for planners and operators.

Key Takeaways:
- Curtailment is a diagnostic, the cause determines the solution.

- A system can look curtailment-free today even as a flexibility problem quietly builds, only showing up as renewable penetration grows further.

- Hourly resolution matters: block-averaged models can smooth out and hide short but significant curtailment events.
