  1. IceWind project TFI Annual Conference 2010 15.-16. September 2010 Niels-Erik Clausen Wind Energy Division, Risø DTU

  2. Outline • Risø DTU context • Wind energy • Challenges • IceWind project objectives • Project partners • Introduction to Work Packages • Expected results

  3. The TechnicalUniversity of Denmark (DTU) DTU has approx. 4.500 employees, more than2.200 scientificstaffincluding800 ph.d.-students. The university has 6.300 bachelor- and master students (2008). We offer a two-yearM.Sc. program withinWind Energy since 2001 and a M.Sc. program withinSustainableEnergy since2008 (and 22 otherMSc programs)

  4. Risø DTU Danish National Laboratory for Sustainable Energy • Materials Research • Fuel Cells • Bio systems • Systems Analysis • Radiation Research • Wind Energy • Risø DTU staff 700 • Plasma Physics • Solar Energy • Intelligent Energy Systems

  5. Risø Wind Energy Division 130 employees in 5 research programmes From resource to grid • Wind power meteorology • Aeroelasticmodelling • Optimisation and cost reduction • New concepts, components and materials • Wind power and the energy system • Offshore wind power

  6. National Test Station for Large Wind Turbines (in Denmark operated by Risø DTU) Coastal, flat terrain 5 test positions Max. 10 MW Max. height 165 m New extension 2011 7 test positions Max height 250 m Small wind turbines at Risø 1979

  7. Renewable Energy in the Nordic countries- 61% of electricityconsumption in 2008 Source: Nordelannualreport 2008

  8. Did youknow? • The installed wind energy capacity in EU produce 4.8% of our electricity – 20% in Denmark. • In 2009 for the second year running more new wind was installed than any other technology (39% of all new) • 10 GW was installed in EU – globally 38 GW • 2.8% is offshore wind in EU • 106 mill t CO2 avoided ~25% of our cars removed • €6 billion avoided fuel cost • 192.000 people employed in the EU Source: European wind energy association

  9. Global capacity end 2009: 160 GW Installedcapacity in 2009: 38 GW Average 5-year annualgrowth : 36.1%

  11. Danish electricity system today www.energinet.dk Wind 31%

  12. Danish electricity system 7 September www.energinet.dk Wind 48%

  13. Potential for Electricity production from offshore wind power plants The North Sea alone would do just about half of the world’s present need.

  14. Threechallenges in a Nordic context

  15. Icing of turbines Icing on an NM82 (V82) in Aapua, Övertorneå municipality in the county of Norrbotten, Sweden, From Mapping of icing for wind turbine applications by Göran Ronstein, Elforsk 2008

  16. Integration of wind in Iceland • 75% hydro • 25% geothermal • 100% renewables • Wind ressource • Noconnections

  18. IceWindproject – keyfigures • Title: Improved forecast of wind, waves and icing • Project period 1. September 2010 – 31. August 2014 • Overall budget 20.8 mill NOK • Financial support TFI 12.3 mill NOK • Ekstern financing 8.5 mill NOK • Partners: 13 • 375 man-months (45,000 hours) over 4 years • Coordinator Risø DTU, Niels-Erik Clausen • 4 PhD projects planned: Two in Iceland, one in Denmark and one in Sweden

  19. IceWindobjectives The overall objective of the project is to support the development and integration of windenergy in the five Nordic countries by focussingonthreemainareas: • Icing onwind turbines (atlas, forecasting and losses) • Integration of windenergyon land (Iceland) • Offshore windenergy (forecasting and access) A key issue is to share knowledge among the five Nordic countries and to work in areas where differences in know-how exist and where barriers or challenges prevent or slow down a large penetration of wind energy in the Nordic grid.

  20. IceWind Partners • Risø DTU (DK) • Vestas (DK) • KjellerVindteknikk (NO) • Met.no (NO) • Statoil (NO) • AGR§ (NO) • Offshore windservice (NO) § Offshore services for O&M • VTT (FI) • Gotland Universitet (SE) • IcelandicMet Office (IS) • University of Iceland (IS) • Landsvirkjun* (IS) • Landsvirkjun Power (IS) * National Power company of Iceland

  21. IceWindworkpackages • WP 1 Icing (lead VTT) • Atlas of icing for Iceland and Sweden, forecast of icing, estimate of losses due to icing • WP 2 Iceland (leadIcelandmetoffice - IMO) • Wind atlas, identification of sites, technical and market integration studies • WP 3 Forecast and O&M (leadmet.no) • Offshore meso-scaleeffects of large wind farms incl. wakes, short term forecasting, maintenancestrategies and availabilityissues • WP 4 Power and energyaspects (lead Risø) • Spatial and temporal variability of windresource, forecasterrors and theirimpacton the Nordic power grid and balance market.

  22. Expectedresults • Betterforecasts of wind and waves • Maps of icing occurence and losses • Betterknowledgeonwake losses in very large wind farms • Wind and ice atlas of Iceland • Integration study of wind in Iceland • Betterunderstanding of the interactionbetweenhydro and wind in the Nordic system
