Abstract
Wind power depends on environmental conditions that vary and are imperfectly forecastable. This intermittency could increase the desired flexibility of fossil fuel generation, impacting emissions. This paper finds that various types of wind generation intermittency are associated with a shift towards natural gas generation and decreasing CO2 emissions. The environmental effects of wind intermittency should be considered when determining the overall impact of intermittency-related activities such as expanded grid storage or turbine siting decisions.
