Wind Power: Infirmity or Sustainability ? Dr. S.Gomathinayagam Executive Director Centre for Wind Energy Technology E-mail : ed@cwet.res.in 1 11/14/2014
Infirmity ? Nature + man made Excess WIND Good TURBINE Operating GRID LESS OR NO WIND Wind below rated capacity
Wind Energy Installed capacity An Indian scenario
Wind electric Generation : World scenario % energy mix Denmark 21% ( Tamil Nadu regional 20% ) (16GW:5) India 4% (42GW:2) USA 2% (52GW:1) China 1.5%
Infirmity : Implications • Wind power cannot be scheduled • Needs a spinning reserve or alternate power • Wind generators bank energy • EB pays for both power purchase and wind generation • Grid stability & low voltage • Needs research for economic storage to avoid wastage of free wind power
Sustainability of PowerWhy wind sector is growing @ 25%Fossil Fuel getting depletedWind is FREE fuel and abundant No need for storage No need for transportIt’s non-polluting and Renewable
Sustainability : Net-metering OFF-GRID ON-GRID
6- 7 m/s HOW DO YOU SEE WIND DATA 9-10 m/s SITE-SPECIFIC
POWER and ENERGY MACHINE-SPECIFIC 12-17m/s WIND M/C POWER INDIA SPECIFIC DESIGNS ? Mis-match 6-7 m/s WIND SITE-SPECIFIC
Infirmity becomes FIRM byWind Power forecasting WIND MACHINE GRID GENRATION LOAD-DEMAND GEO-SPATIAL
Wind infirmity overcome by Storage Schemes ,CAES
Firm Will ? There is Wind + Flow battery 34MW Japan’s NaS example
Sustainability Wind to Water ? Excess Wind USAGE
Plug&Charge EOV urban parking AREAS & Wind to Water/Hydrogen in remote off grid locations Excess Wind USAGE
In Conclusion Wind certainly Works • No threat of cost escalation • No threat of hoarding • No threat of transportation / Strike • No threat of depletion as it is renewable • No threat of Pollution to environment • Wind is sustainable with infirmity managed with Focused Political and societal WILL
