  • EWEA Offshore Report 2009
    Oceans of Opportunity Harnessing Europe’s largest domestic energy resource A report by the European Wind Energy Association Oceans of opportunity Europe’s offshore wind potential is enormous and able to power Europe seven times over. Huge developer interest Over 100 GW of offshore wind projects are already in various stages of planning. If realised, these projects would produce 10% of the EU’s electricity whilst avoiding 200 million tonnes of CO2 emissions each year. Repeating the onshore success EWEA has a target of 40 GW of offshore wind in the EU by 2020, implying an average annual market growth of 28% over the coming 12 years. The EU market for onshore wind grew by an average 32% per year in the 12-year period from 1992-2004 – what the wind energy industry Oceans of Opportunity has achieved on land can be repeated at sea. Building the offshore grid EWEA’s proposed offshore grid builds on the 11 offshore grids currently operating and 21 offshore grids currently being considered by the grid operators in the Baltic and North Seas to give Europe a truly pan-European electricity super highway. Realising the potential Strong political support and action from Europe’s policy-makers will allow a new, multi-billion euro industry to be built. EWEA Results that speak for themselves This new industry will deliver thousands of green collar jobs and a new About EWEA renewable energy economy and establish Europe as world leader in EWEA is the voice of the wind industry, actively promoting the utilisation of offshore wind power technology.

  • Progress of Baltic Synchronisation with Continental Europe
    Progress of Baltic synchronisation with continental Europe Hannes Kont Director of the synchronisation program Why? Facilities for the control of transmission of electricity in the Baltic States are located in Russia. Environmental impact of Capacities: 337 GW Russian electricity is unknown. Peak load: 215 GW Possibilities for electricity production and trade are limited. Synchronisation targets • By the end of 2025, we will disconnect the power systems of the Baltic States from Russia and join the Continental Europe power network and the respective frequency area. • We will mitigate the political, social and economic risks associated with the eastern neighbour. • New markets will be opened in order to improve competitiveness of business. • We will ensure energy security. Agreement on the conditions for interconnection • Signed by Elering (EE), Litgrid (LT), AST (LV), PSE (PL), select Regional Groups of Continental Europe, and main network operators on 20 May 2019 • Establishes rights and obligations regarding the synchronized connection of the Baltic power network to the Continental Europe Synchronous Area (CESA) • Main requirements: • Additional studies on dynamic stability • Transmission capacity tests • Island operation tests • Compliance with the terms and conditions, RGCE MLA Operating Handbook and SAFA What are we doing? • Existing networks are being reinforced and reconstructed, interconnection capacities increased. • To ensure frequency stability, system inertia in the Baltic power system should be provided 24/7; therefore, synchronous condensers will be constructed and the protection and control systems of the grid as well as direct current links will be upgraded. • The present direct current interconnection between Lithuania and Poland is being reconstructed into an alternating current interconnection (LitPol Link).

    21, rue d’Artois, F-75008 PARIS B1_106_2010 CIGRE 2010 http : //www.cigre.org NorNed – World’s longest power cable J.E. SKOG H. van ASTEN T. WORZYK T. ANDERSRØD Statnett TenneT ABB Nexans Norway The Netherlands Sweden Norway SUMMARY The NorNed cable was commissioned on 6 May 2008 after three years of intensive engineering and construction. It was important for this efficient implementation that a core project team had been maintained over a relatively long period, preparing all licences, all major supply contracts, etc. The paper will describe the way of detailed engineering, manufacturing and installing altogether 1160 km of high voltage cable, some of it in form of a two core cable and a major part as ordinary single- core cable. The strict magnetic compass deviation requirements as well as environmental concerns related to the magnetic field set up by a single cable led to the special two-core mass-impregnated cable used in the NorNed project. In the northerly deeper part of the cable route ordinary single-core cable was applied. The North Sea is a rough working place and the work scope offshore was far beyond all other known submarine power cable projects. How NorNed managed the resulting challenges is being described. The extensive offshore jointing activities have resulted in experiences which are important for future projects of a similar kind. After having been laid, the cables were protected by water jet trenching over close to 97% of the cable route. The rest, including the crossings, has been given protection by rock dumping. Following successful after installation test NorNed experienced two offshore cable failures and had to mobilise extra vessel spreads in order to get the situation restored.

Powstańców Warszawy 12, 35-959 Rzeszów, Poland Abstract. A case study based on the real data obtained from the Polish PSE System Operator of the highest voltages electrical energy network is shown. The data about the interconnection exchange and some complex networks (graphs) parameters were examined, after the removal of selected nodes. This allowed to test selected network parameters and to show that the breakdown of only three nodes in this network can cause significant drop of its average efficiency. 1 Introduction The concept of complex systems and related theory give many interesting applications in modelling different real systems [1]. One of examples are power systems which can be exposed on different threats even leading to the risk of potential blackouts [2]. In this short paper, the real electrical network as a graph of nodes and edges is shown. Some of this network topological parameters are given and the interconnection exchange as an example of the power system security is shown. Selected parameters of complex networks are calculated and the removal of some network nodes caused by failure was done. This leads to the changes in the whole network topology shown in tables. The most important is the drop of network efficiency and in turn, the increase of transmission costs. The paper is organized as follows: after the short Introduction in Section 2 we show the complex systems and networks theory.

  • Part 3 Energy Policy: the Achilles Heel of the Baltic States
    THE BALTIC STATES IN THE EU: YEstERDAY, TODAY AND TOMORROW Extract from: A. Grigas, A. Kasekamp, K. Maslauskaite, L.Zorgenfreija, “The Baltic states in the EU: yesterday, today and tomorrow”, Studies & Reports No 98, Notre Europe – Jacques Delors Institute, July 2013. PART 3 ENERGY POLICY: THE ACHILLES HEEL OF THE BALTIC STATES by Dr. Agnia Grigas INTRODUCTION Nearly a decade following EU accession, the energy sector remains the most vulnerable national arena for Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania – an “Achilles heel” of the three Baltic states. The vulnerability stems from the fact that the energy sectors of the three states remain inextricably linked to and fully depended on Russia while they are virtually isolated from the rest of the EU, making them “energy islands”. This predicament is not only of concern to statesmen and strategists as energy effects almost every aspect of the Baltic states – the economy, industry and the wellbeing of citizens. The rapid inflation of the mid 2000s leading to the economic overheating and eventual economic crisis in 2008 was in part due to the rapidly accelerating costs of Russian gas and oil. Industry which accounts for a significant portion of total gas consumed (50%1 of total gas consumed in Lithuania, 21%2 in Estonia, 14%3 in Latvia) was also hard-hit. Gas prices are particularly sensitive for households who depend on gas for heating in the winter months, making up 10%4 of total gas used in Estonia in 2011, 9%5 in Latvia, and 5%6 in Lithuania, which represents 10 to 15% of their post-tax income7.

    Grid integration and stability of 600MW windfarm at Kriegers Flak - the largest power plant in Denmark PO.304 Vladislav Akhmatov Energinet.dk Transmission System Operator of Denmark Abstract The Kriegers Flak 600MW offshore wind power plant (OWPP) will become the largest electrical power generation unit in Denmark East, when completed by December 2018. Already in fair wind conditions, the wind power, decentralized combined heat-power (CHP) units and photovoltaics (PV) will cover the most of electrical power consumption, participation of central thermal power plants is significantly reduced, and the power and energy balance is maintained through interconnectors to foreign systems. This poster outlines results and main findings of a dynamic voltage stability study for the grid-connection of the Kriegers Flak OWPP to the Danish transmission system using near-future scenarios with no central power plants in-service and compares impact of different control regimes of the windfarm on the voltage recovery. Transmission System of Denmark Denmark is a small country, but two HVAC systems, Denmark West and Denmark East, which are asynchronous one to another and interconnected via the Great Belt HVDC link, Fig.1. The Kriegers Flak OWPP will be connected to Denmark East, which includes the main island of Zealand with the main consumption around Copenhagen, and the islands of Lolland and Falster with the largest share of onshore and offshore wind power, Fig.2, but low consumption. The worst case scenarios are present when superimposing high wind generation and transport throughout the East Danish system [1]. Objectives 1.

  • HVDC Links in System Operations
    HVDC Links in System Operations Technical paper 2 December 2019 ENTSO-E AISBL • Avenue de Cortenbergh 100 • 1000 Brussels • Belgium • Tel + 32 2 741 09 50 • Fax + 32 2 741 09 51 • [email protected] • www. entsoe.eu HVDC Links in System Operations Executive Summary High-voltage direct current (HVDC) is an increasingly important technology for transferring electrical power in the European transmission grid. New HVDC links play a key role in future development plans for the European transmission grid and internal market. The use of the advanced functionalities of these HVDC links in system operations is essential for the secure and efficient operation of the grid. ENTSO-E recognizes the importance of the functionalities and ancillary services that can be provided by HVDC links. Several of these functionalities are inherent within the HVDC technology and therefore the power system can benefit from the efficiency they can readily provide. The use of the functionalities of the HVDC links in system operations contributes to meeting current and future challenges, such as decarbonisation and large scale integration of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) which are largely connected via Power Electronics (PE). Such technologies result in the decommissioning of classic rotating power plants and the disappearance of the physical characteristics the power system was built on. In addition, the HVDC technology may support the realisation of an integrated European energy market and the sharing of ancillary services between countries and synchronous areas. Today HVDC links are typically used for connecting two asynchronous, non-embedded AC systems and for long-distance bulk power transmission using both overhead land lines and submarine cables.
