【 摘 要 】

The Wind Technologies Program seeks to reduce the cost and improve the performance of wind technology, and to reduce barriers to its use. The GPRA benefits are estimated primarily from model projections of the market share for wind technologies, based on their economic characteristics. Several models are utilized for this purpose. This document describes the inputs and assumptions that are used by the models to calculate those benefits. The most significant change from the GPRA05 benefits methodology in assumed program direction and activities for the current GPRA06 estimates is the inclusion of offshore wind energy technology development.
