FIGURE 12-19
Relative capital cost versus EIR with different numbers of wind turbines and battery sizes.
Setting unnecessarily high EIR requirement can make the project uneco-
nomical. For that reason, the Energy Index of Reliability must be set after a
careful optimization of the cost and the consequences of not meeting the
load requirement during some portion of the time period.
