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.

Printed in Belgium FOREWORD Europe is at an unprecedented crossroads for its energy future. We are currently going through a paradigm shift in the way we produce, transmit, distribute and trade energy, as we try to reduce the carbon footprint of the energy sector as a whole. This shift will increase the role of electricity compared to other energy vectors. We will have to get the most promising renewable energy sources where they are, while further integrating the European energy market.

    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.

This paper analyses several energy system scenarios towards 2050 for the North Sea region. With a focus on offshore wind power, the impacts of meshed offshore grid and sector coupling are studied. First, a project-based scenario, where each offshore wind power plant is connected individually to the onshore power system, is compared to a meshed grid scenario. Both the amount of offshore wind power installed and the level of curtailment are assessed. Then, these results are compared to a scenario with sector coupling included. The results show that while the introduction of a meshed grid can increase the amount of offshore wind power installed towards 2050, sector coupling is expected to be a more important driver for increasing offshore wind power installations. In addition, sector coupling can significantly decrease the level of offshore wind curtailment. 1 Introduction 2018). With an expected increase in electricity consumption, there is more load that can be met by VRE generation.
