Task 25 Response to Nuclear Energy Agency Integration Costs (published by NEA 2012 report)

Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) published a report on Nuclear energy and renewables in which they produce very high grid level system costs for wind power. Task 25 participants have reviewed the methods the report is using and found several inconsistencies with the current knowledge about the costs of wind integration to power systems, which are outlined in this response.
