Proper economic analysis requires generating monthly NCFs and explicitly modelling the contractual and infrastructure constraints, fixed vs variable costs, type curves and flush capacity of different assets.
In this section, we categorise the types of curtailment based on the situation in which they occur and the rationale for voluntary and involuntary curtailment. We define curtailment as an instance when a generation unit produces less than it could due to its own marginal cost characteristics.

Examples of solutions to minimize RE curtailment. RE mix diversification (policy). Design the right regulatory and policy frameworks. Power companies’ historical business structure and reluctance to competition.
curtailment is 3-4+ times the average curtailment, but even in an efficiently designed market, price signals for wind investment are given by average not marginal curtailment, creating a “tragedy of the commons” that requires a corrective charge to restore efficiency. The paper sets out a model
Curtailment of variable renewable generation, particularly wind and solar energy, is becoming more widespread as wind and solar energy development expands across the country and penetrations increase. Curtailment can affect the revenue of wind and solar energy projects.

Curtailment refers to the dispatch down of non-synchronous renewable generation for system- wide reasons, where the dispatch down of all such generators would alleviate the problem.
