figure 1. An example of a system ramping event due to weather impact on distributed resources from Hawaii's SWIFT
forecast. (a) Solar bright spots cause (b) a rooftop photovoltaic (PV) ramp-up, resulting in a sudden system ramp-down
event and overfrequency condition in the middle of the day (<15-min event).

For example, within the Spanish peninsular system, a task
of the transmission system operator (TSO) Red Eléctrica de
España (REE) is to assure that there is enough liquidity in
the upward tertiary reserve market, because there is no specific capacity contracted from reserve providers and liquidity is assured by obligatory bidding. Therefore, it is of the
utmost importance to guarantee that the system is operated
with enough running reserves.
REE's uncertainty-based approach uses different probability distributions depending on the RES production level.
This probabilistic approach takes into account the historically
november/december 2017

observed errors of demand, wind, and solar forecasts but not
the uncertainty associated with the real meteorological situation predicted for the upcoming hours. Even with some further
improvement in the forecast quality, large deviations are still
occasionally experienced (often referred to as outliers). These
outliers are located on the flat, long tail of the probability distribution function of the forecast errors and clearly present a
threat to the reliability and security of a power grid. The presence of these outliers also places more burden on the operators,
as manual actions may be required. Sometimes, these outliers
are driven by inclement weather conditions, for instance, icing.
