    The 4th Wind Energy Systems Engineering Workshop September 13th-14th, 2017 Risø DTU National Laboratory for Sustainable Energy Roskilde, Denmark Sponsored by: DTU Wind Energy National Renewable Energy Laboratory Workshop Agenda Overview: The 4th workshop on systems engineering for wind energy will take place on the 13th and 14th of September, 2017. The first workshop in December 2010 was a success in catalyzing interest in this important topic among participants from industry, the national laboratories and academia. The second and third workshops in January 2013 and 2015, respectively, with more than 100 participants each, demonstrated the significant growth in interest from the research and industry community surrounding systems engineering for wind energy and integrated approaches to wind turbine and plant design. At this fourth workshop, DTU Wind Energy and NREL will be hosting the workshop in Europe to encourage participation from European wind energy systems engineering practitioners and interested parties. This year’s theme will be on exposing interactions in the system and exploring how different wind energy stakeholders addressing them in new, integrated and innovative ways.

  • Corporate Non-Financial Reporting in Germany
    Copyright © Development International e.V., 2019 ISBN: 978-3-9820398-1-7 Authors: Chris N. Bayer, PhD Gisella Vogel Sarah Kaltenhäuser Katherine Storrs Jiahua (Java) Xu, PhD Juan Ignacio Ibañez, LL.M. Title: A New Responsibility for Sustainability: Corporate Non-Financial Reporting in Germany Date published: May 6, 2019 Funded by: iPoint-systems gmbh www.ipoint-systems.com Executive Summary Germany's economy is the fourth-largest in the world (by nominal GDP), and with 28% of the euro area market, it represents the largest economy in Europe.1 Considering the supply chains leading to its economy, Germany's cumulative environmental, social and governance performance reverberates globally. The EU Non-Financial Reporting Directive (NFRD) is the impetus behind this study – a new regulation that seeks to “increase the relevance, consistency and comparability of information disclosed by certain large undertakings and groups across the Union.”2 Large undertakings in EU member states are not only required to report on their financial basics, now they are also required by Article 1 of the Directive to account for their non- financial footprint, including adverse impacts they have on the environment and supply chains. In accordance with the Directive, the German transposition stipulates that the non-financial declaration must state which reporting framework was used to create it (or explain why no framework was applied), as well as apply non-financial key performance indicators relevant to the particular business. These requirements are our point of departure: We systematically assess the degree of non-financial transparency and performance reporting for 2017 applying an ex-post assessment framework premised on the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the German Sustainability Code (Deutscher Nachhaltigkeitskodex, DNK) and the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC).

  • Nordex Group Announces New N149/5.X Turbine
    PRESS RELEASE Entering the 5 MW class: Nordex Group announces new N149/5.X turbine Powerful addition to the Delta4000 series presented in 2017 Hamburg, 26 March 2019. The Nordex Group is extending its product portfolio with a multi-megawatt machine in the 5 MW class. After the N149/4.0-4.5 and the N133/4.8, the new N149/5.X is the third turbine type in the Delta4000 series. The N149/5.X is designed for moderate and light-wind areas and can also perform optimally at sites with complex requirements. Apart from the classic core markets in Europe, the target markets for the N149/5.X also cover global growth regions such as South Africa, Australia and South America. The N149/5.X is designed for maximum flexibility and can be operated in different modes in the 5 MW range depending on site requirements and customer needs. This enables customers to individually configure the wind farm in terms of the output, capacity and lifetime of the turbine, as well as with regard to sound requirements, and thus adapt it ideally to the company's respective business model. The N149/5.X is a logical progression based on the successful approach of a flexible power range in the N149/4.0-4.5. "Thanks to the proven technological basis of the Delta4000 product series we are in a position to continuously develop highly efficient solutions for different wind regimes and different geographical regions and to ensure short lead times for product launches. We have designed the N149/5.X with its maximum flexibility and efficiency to exactly meet the needs of our customers," says José Luis Blanco, CEO Nordex Group.

Automatic Update of Backend Default Data 7 5. Running BOS Parametrics in SAM 9 6. Appendix 11 Introduction NREL’s Land-based Balance of System Systems Engineering (LandBOSSE) model is a tool for modeling the balance-of-system (BOS) costs of land-based wind plants. BOS costs currently account for approximately 30% of the capital expenditures needed to install a land-based wind plant; they include all costs associated with installing a wind plant, such as permitting, labor, material, and equipment costs associated with site preparation, foundation construction, electrical infrastructure, and tower installation. This document serves as a tutorial for successfully running the newly integrated LandBOSSE model in the System Advisor Model (SAM). For more details on how the LandBOSSE model calculates BOS costs, see the following technical report: https://www.nrel.gov/docs/fy19osti/72201.pdf . The LandBOSSE tool is a an open-source project written in the Python programming language. It is maintained by NREL and is hosted on GitHub. For more details on the code implementation of the model, see the following link to LandBOSSE’s GitHub repository: https://github.com/wisdem/landbosse . For a detailed look at the default LandBOSSE inputs used in SAM, see the following two links: 1. https://github.com/WISDEM/LandBOSSE/blob/pip_installable/landbosse/landbosse_api/ project_list.xlsx 2. https://github.com/WISDEM/LandBOSSE/tree/pip_installable/landbosse/landbosse_api/p roject_data LandBOSSE Inputs in SAM The LandBOSSE model has 66 inputs: 44 input parameters (e.g., turbine rating, distance to interconnection, etc.) and 12 data lookup tables (e.g., crew cost for multiple types of crews).
