Danish wind power plans by 2030 OutiKartano JanneTuunanen
Background Net exporter of oil and natural gas for only 10 more years: Need to build up a new sustainable energy production Vision for long-term phasing-out of fossil fuels Increase long-term supply reliability and decrease CO₂ emissions Kartano & Tuunanen
Political framework 2004: Long-run Energy Policy Agreements of March 2004 2007: A visionary Danish energy policy 2025 2008: Energy Policy Agreement of 21 February 2008 2009: Danish Promotion of Renewable Energy Act 2012: Energy Agreement of 22 March 2012 Kartano & Tuunanen
2011 • Reduce gross energy consumption by 2% at period 2006-2011 • 20% of gross energy consumption covered by renewable energy • 28% of electricity consumption covered by wind energy Kartano & Tuunanen
Wind Capacity and Share of Electricity Supply Kartano & Tuunanen
INDUSTRY • Year 2011 wind industry 6.4% of total Danish exports • Value of export 38.8 billion DKK • Employees 23 500 Global market shares of wind turbine manufacturers at 2010: Vestas+Siemens (DK) 20% Kartano & Tuunanen
OFFSHORE • Capacity at 2012 total 1300 MW • Anholt 400 MW • Horns Rev I&II 370 MW • Rödsand II 207 MW • Nysted 165 MW Kartano & Tuunanen
DEA • The Danish Energy Agency (DEA) a “one-stop-shop” for permits to offshore wind turbines • Tenders out the government projects in an open competition • Assessment of environmental impacts • Mapping of future sites (4600 MW) Kartano & Tuunanen
ONSHORE Kartano & Tuunanen
Promoting local population’s acceptance: • The loss-of-value scheme • The option-to-purchase scheme • The green scheme • The guarantee scheme • Energinet.dk’s Front Office is available for advice and guidance Kartano & Tuunanen
PSO • Public Service Obligation (PSO) fee • paid by all electricity consumers • due to increased support for renewable energy use Kartano & Tuunanen
Grid Connections Varying electricity production: • Exceeds Danish consumption at night • No production due to lack of wind or storms • Cross-border grid connections to Sweden, Norway and Germany Kartano & Tuunanen
Part 1 Summary • Broad and long-term political commitment • “One-stop-shop” DEA • Actions for acceptance of local people • Denmark’s location: • Windy environment • Enables cross-border grid connections to ensure back-up capacity Kartano & Tuunanen
Danish wind power plans by 2030 Part 2: The outlook
Denmark’s energy goals • By 2030: • 50% of renewables • CO₂-free heating • District heating • Excess wind energy and heat pumps • 50% of electricity with wind by 2020-2025 • The ultimate goal is to be independent of fossil fuels by 2050 Kartano & Tuunanen
Denmark’s energy consumption has been historically very constant, even though economy has grown 1990: ≈600 PJ Kartano & Tuunanen
Wind power is one of the main elements in the attempt to achieve the set goals • Uses: • Most new capacity set to be installed offshore • Also at least 1000 MW more potential onshore Plans to install up to 1800 MW of new capacity by 2020 Kartano & Tuunanen
Government initiatives (1/2) Kartano & Tuunanen
Government initiatives (2/2) • Subsidies • Improving tendering procedures • New transmission lines to Sweden and Germany Kartano & Tuunanen
Technology diffusion aspects Kartano & Tuunanen
Nordpool: to even out the fluctuations • Building better connections to neighbouring countries • Selling excess energy to neighbours • Hydro energy from Sweden and Norway • Kriegers Flak (600 MW) wind park carried out as a joint venture with Germany (and Sweden), in operation by 2020 Kartano & Tuunanen
Challenges • The grid needs to be expanded and strengthened to support the increased wind energy production • The average time from decision to implementation is around 10 years • Storing energy (20-30 GWh could be stored as useful heat with the existing system) Kartano & Tuunanen
Summary • The Danish have been and continue to be forerunners in implementing wind power • The Danish plans are quite ambitious, but feasible • Increasing the amount of wind energy is an essential part of the plans • Government has numerous initiatives to support the progress Kartano & Tuunanen
