List of Offshore Wind Farms - Wikipedia 1 of 15 List of offshore wind farms - Wikipedia 1 of 15 List of offshore wind farms This page lists the largest offshore wind farms that are currently operational rated by nameplate capacity. It also lists the largest offshore wind farms currently under construction, the largest proposed offshore wind farms, and offshore wind farms with notability other than size. As of September 2018 the Walney Extension in the United Kingdom is the largest offshore wind farm in the world at 659 MW. Contents Four offshore wind farms are in the Thames Estuary area: Kentish Flats, Largest operational offshore wind farms Gunfleet Sands, Thanet and London Largest under construction Array. The latter was largest in the Largest proposed world.

  • SKI Report 02:18 Nuclear Weapons Research in Sweden Research
    SKI’s perspective Background In the year 1998 Sweden, together with the rest of the states in the European Union and Euratom signed the Additional Protocol to the Safeguard Agreement with the International Atomic Energy Agency, IAEA. The Additional Protocol gives the Agency extended complimentary access to areas and buildings and rights to take environmental samples within a state. The process of ratification is going on with the intention that the protocol should be implemented simultaneously in all member states. In ratifying the agreement in May 2000, Sweden changed its Act on Nuclear Activities and passed a new law regarding inspections. The present estimate is that the protocol could be implemented in the beginning of 2003 after ratification in all EU member states. Aim When the Additional Protocol is implemented, Sweden is to be “mapped” by the IAEA, scrutinising all nuclear activities, present as well as future plans. In the light of this, SKI has chosen to go one step further, letting Dr Thomas Jonter of the Department of History at Uppsala University investigate Sweden’s past activities in the area of nuclear weapons research in a political perspective. Dr Jonter has previously studied the Swedish National Defence Research Institute’s (FOA) activities in this area up until 1972. This report deals with the civilian research programme and its links to the military plans to produce nuclear weapons. Since Sweden had plans in the nuclear weapons area it is important to show to the IAEA that all such activities have stopped. This is the main objective with this report. Results Dr Jonter has made a survey of available sources in the archives at Studsvik and FOI, where the records of the AB Atomenergi company are stored.

  • Analysing Changes in Electricity Industries Against Actors and Technologies: Utility to Business Transformations in Denmark, Germany, Finland and Spain
    Received February 28, 2012 / Accepted June 9, 2012 J. Technol. Manag. Innov. 2012, Volume 7, Issue 2 Analysing Changes in Electricity Industries Against Actors and Technologies: Utility to Business Transformations in Denmark, Germany, Finland and Spain Mari Ratinen1, Peter Lund Abstract Liberalization of electricity markets, governmental policies for renewable electricity and technology development are transforming national electricity industries. However, there are considerable national differences in how these industries have changed and which businesses have been developed. We propose a typology for comparing changes in electricity industry based on the changes in the actors and technologies. Wind power and solar photovoltaic are used here as technology examples. A qualitative analysis of the changes in electricity industries in four EU member states is presented. Based on the preliminary findings, we conclude that if the industry consists of many, small firms with relatively loose ties with the government the industry is more likely to change than if it consists of few large firms with strong relations with the government.

  • Integrated Offshore Networks: the Context of Our Work
    Developing offshore grids : An integrated approach Place your chosen image here. The four corners must just cover the arrow tips. For covers, the three pictures should be the same size and in a straight line. Andrew Hiorns Integrated offshore networks: the context of our work Sustainability We are interested in establishing workable arrangements at the lowest costs for UK consumers such that: The potential deliverability of offshore wind is maximised Security of supply and network resilience are maximised The overall cost to consumers is minimised Affordability The scale of potential offshore a Offshore wind leased wind necessitates reflection on capacity* the delivery challenges: 1GW Security of supply 7GW European interconnection Technology development Security of 32GW supply Supply chain capability Planning consents Financing Round 1 Round 2 Round 3 Skills * Source: DECC website 2 http://www.decc.gov.uk/en/content/cms/what_we_do/uk_supply/energy_mix/renewable/policy/offshore/wind_leasing/wind_leasing.aspx 1 Assumptions: Generation mix scenarios 2008/09 TRANSMISSION SYSTEM AS AT 31st DECEMBER 2007 400kV Substations 275kV Substations Slow Progression 132kV Substations 400kV Circuits 275kV Circuits 132kV Circuits Major Generating Sites Including Pumped Storage Pentland Firth Connected at 400kV THE SHETLAND ISLANDS 6 Connected at 275kV 9,724MW offshore wind in 2020 Hydro Generation 23,174MW offshore wind in 2030 1 21% renewable electricity generation 2020 target missed 5 7 8 9 2 10 Gone Green 4 3 16,374MW offshore wind
