North Atlantic Energy Network January 2016
North Atlantic Energy Network January 2016 Orkustofnun (OS) - National Energy Authority of Iceland Norges Arktiske Universitet (UiT) - The Arctic University of Norway Energy Styrelsen - Danish Energy Agency Jarðfeingi - Faroese Earth and Energy Directorate Shetland Islands Council - Economic Development Service Greenland Innovation Centre 1 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The aim of the North Atlantic Energy Network project was to investigate how isolated energy systems in the North Atlantic can be connected to Norway and Greenland to form an electrical grid in the North Atlantic. Representatives of Greenland, Iceland, Faroe Islands, Shetland and Norway met in Copenhagen in the end of February 2015 to formulate how to tackle this question. Each country documented its status regarding energy production and potentials in the fields of renewable energy and the technological aspects were investigated. Greenland has a big hydropower and solar energy potential, which is not known in detail. Further work is needed to map the potentials. Due to lack of infrastructure and experience a cable connection between Greenland and the neighbouring countries is not realistic in the nearest future. It is technically possible to connect all of the neighbouring countries around Iceland with subsea cables. Iceland now produces about 18 TWh of electricity per year and could have the potential to double the production from geothermal and hydropower alone. There are many unclear aspects that need to be investigated further to draw a full picture of the pros and cons of interconnectors from Iceland. The legal and regulatory framework must be in place before a project of this kind can be realized and extensive grid reinforcements are needed to support export through a cable at a single connection point in Iceland. -
Methodology of Comparison 2013
METHODOLOGY OF COMPARISON 2013 Comparative Analysis of Sustainability Performance Methodological Remarks Convinced that a comparison of environmental, social and governance performance is of interest, not only to the Company itself, but also to its stakeholders, certain comparisons between Terna’s results and those of other com- panies are included in the 2013 Sustainability Report, as was the case in the preceding three years. Listed below are the main criteria adopted in the analysis, as an introduction to the reading and interpretation of the comparisons of individual indicators in the Report: • three panels of companies were identified: an industry panel, composed of the European transmission system operators and the major extra-European operators in terms of kilometres of lines managed; and two multi- industry panels, the first relative to large Italian companies (the 40 companies of the FTSE-MIB at 18 December 2013) and the second relative to the best international performers (the 24 world Sustainability Industry Group Leaders, identified by the RobecoSAM sustainability rating agency and disclosed at the publishing of the Dow Jones Sustainability Index of September 2013). The purpose of the three panels is to guarantee, also relative to the type of indicator reviewed, a comparison between companies with the same operational characteristics, an Italian comparison, and a comparison with the top international performers. The Terna figures do not contribute to the calculation of the average in the case of the RobecoSAM – Supersector Leaders panel; • the companies considered from among those in the three panels were those which publicise the information necessary for comparisons either on their websites, through the Sustainability Report (even if not prepared following the GRI guidelines) or through other documentation (HSE Report, financial report, etc.). -

The Benefits of Investing in Electricity Transmission a Case Study of Northern Europe
The Benefits of Investing in Electricity Transmission A Case Study of Northern Europe Jonas Teusch Arno Behrens Christian Egenhofer January 2012 Abstract Electricity trading can bring down the costs of the EU’s transition to a competitive low-carbon economy, in particular by facilitating the integration of renewable energy from variable sources. Yet insufficient grid infrastructure and regulatory obstacles prevent the trading potential from being fully realised in northern Europe. While many interconnector projects are under development, various barriers are precluding the grid rollout from taking place on time. The European Commission’s energy infrastructure package is an important step forward to overcome these barriers. But the scale and urgency of the infrastructure challenge call for significant further progress. This study was funded by Dong Energy, Fortum, Statkraft and Vattenfall. The authors would like to extend special thanks to officials and representatives from the European Commission, ENTSO-E, ACER, BNetzA, the Swedish Markets Inspectorate and EWEA for their valuable assistance and support. The preliminary results of this study were discussed at a stakeholder workshop held at CEPS on 28 September 2011; the main results were debated by a high-level panel on 28 November 2011. Unless otherwise indicated, the views expressed are attributable only to the authors in a personal capacity and not to any institution with which they are associated.
