Wind is expected to meet 24-28% of the EU’s electricity generation

in 2030, up from 11% last year, WindEurope says in its new report Making Transition Work.

But the continent must avoid past policy mistakes and step up its ambitions again if it doesn’t want to fall behind other big markets such as the US, China or other emerging nations that are increasingly attracting investment.

“Europe is not giving the leadership on clean energy it once did. Overall levels of ambition have fallen, certainly compared to other parts of the world,” says WindEurope chief executive Giles Dickson, adding that with current policies in place, Europe won’t remain number one in renewables.

“For Europe to reap the benefits of its first-mover advantage in wind energy and to contribute its fair share to climate change mitigation, it needs three things: adequate policies, innovative technology and an integrated energy system.”

The report recommends that

the EU raises its 2030 renewable energy target to at least 30% of gross final energy consumption, revise its Renewable Energy Directive and improve legislation on energy market design.

It also calls for technological innovation in turbines to reduce costs, improved management of very high shares of wind in the power system, and the

electrification of the heating, cooling and transport sectors to increase green power demand.

After solid growth in the period up to 2013, a slowdown occurred in many European markets, and wind additions on the continent in 2014 and 2015 were highly concentrated in a handful of countries, particularly the UK and Germany, the report says.

Regulatory changes, some of them retroactive (such as in Spain, Romania or the Czech Republic), have unsettled investors, while the lack of an adequate climate and energy framework in most EU member states for the post-2020 period brings additional uncertainty.

Meanwhile, commitments from countries outside Europe have increased fast, with China targeting 200GW of wind by 2020, and India 60GW by 2022.

Tenders in Latin America and Africa have also provided strong incentives for European manufacturers and developers to look abroad, WindEurope says.

The report says that onshore wind costs could fall 26% by 2025, and 41% by 2040, the report states. Offshore wind could reach €80/MWh by 2025 in Europe, but further costs reduction could be possible with the right pipeline of projects after 2020. The offshore cost estimate is likely to be conservative, given recent tenders in the Netherlands and Denmark have already produced a lower price of electricity.

Fundamental data changes needed to protect renewables build-outFrom Front Pageor generation side adapting their behaviour to support the system.

“With more customer participation and more decentralised generation, flexibility providers connected to the distribution grid are significantly

and continuously increasing. Therefore, the management and exchanges of information and data between TSOs, responsible for balancing supply and demand, and DSOs, responsible for the system’s security of supply and quality of service, is fundamental

to integrating the new forms of demand and supply.”

The report also calls for TSOs to be able to access DSO customer data — directly or indirectly — if they become flexibility providers to the TSO. This will require fundamental changes in the way

that data is managed, especially to meet data protection laws. The five electricity associations recommend the standardisation of data across the EU and that the “party or parties responsible for data management should be neutral to all market players.”

DARIUS SNIECKUS

Developer Dong Energy has switched on an advanced radar system

capturing three-dimensional data on the wind flow in the Westermost Rough development off England’s east coast.

The Beacon (Beamed Radar for Energy Assessment and Site Conditions) station, said to be the first of its kind in the world, can sweep tens of thousands of square kilometres of offshore skies using Dual Doppler radar to generate complex, “complete resolution” dynamic images of wind moving across a development site.

The technology was hatched by US outfit SmartWind Technologies and is being shepherded by the UK Carbon Trust as part of its Offshore Wind Accelerator programme.

“We’re getting minute-by-minute 3D images of the wind flow through the wind power plant,” says Nicolai Gayle Nygaard, Beacon technical manager at Dong Energy. “This is a game changer for the industry. We’re no longer limited to measuring the wind at just one point, now we can document the wind field across the entire wind power plant and coastal domain.

“Conventional measurement technologies are like using a torch in a dark room — you have a limited view. With the new radars, the entire room is flooded with light.

“We get new insights that provide valuable information for the design and operation of future wind power plants.”

John Schroder, co-founder of Texas-based SmartWind Technologies, which developed and deployed the system, adds: “[This] advanced hardware and software solution measures the complex flows at the Westermost Rough wind power plant and reduces the generated complex data fields into a user-friendly format.

“The acquired data will facilitate long-term studies and aid real-time decision-making. Application of this new capability will undoubtedly drive down the cost of wind energy.”

“Initial data from the Westermost Rough campaign is providing a wealth of detail on how the wind farms’ turbine arrays interact with the evolving wind field,” says Dong project manager Jesper Skov.

“Every week, the radars collect so much data that the information volume exceeds Wikipedia in size.”

For the 18-month trial, a pair of the prototype radar systems have been installed

several kilometres apart on the shoreline, near Hull, northeast England, using a narrow beam of radio waves to scan back and forth through the 210MW wind farm, located 30km offshore.

From readings taken of the “Doppler shift” in bounce-back from particles in the air,

the Beacon system creates a detailed wind map that can be updated minute by minute. “The Dual Doppler radar system has already documented how the wind turbines shadow each other and how these wakes develop behind the wind power plant,” says Nygaard. “This is giving us new insights into the complexities of the wind flow through and around an offshore wind farm. By knowing how the wind varies through the plant,

we can better predict the power output of the wind turbines.”

The data gathered could change the wider industry’s approach to offshore wind development from

the macro, such as power-boosting layouts, to the micro — including improvements to blade technology and foundation designs.

Westermost Rough is the first commercial development to use Siemens’ pioneering 6MW SWT-154-6.0 turbines.

Dong turns on ‘game-changing’ 3D radar system

ANDREW LEE

Dong Energy will build a major offshore wind O&M hub in Grimsby, eastern

England, to support developments including the 1.2GW Hornsea 1 project.

The Danish group will make a “multi-million pound” investment in Grimsby’s Royal Dock, creating a facility it claims will “transform the way wind farms are supported”.

The new hub will initially service Race Bank, the 580MW wind farm Dong is currently building off the coast of eastern England for operation in 2018.

Hornsea 1 is due on line by 2020, becoming the world’s largest offshore wind farm, and Dong has already secured development consent for the 1.8GW Hornsea 2 project.

Dong’s plans include the deployment from Grimsby of service operational vessels (SOVs) that can carry 60 people and spend 28 days on-site at the

company’s wind farms, servicing up to eight turbines a day.

Technicians from Dong and turbine supplier Siemens will no longer have to scale vertical ladders to access the turbines, and instead will walk directly off the SOV’s deck using a motion-compensated gangway.

Grimsby will also host a “comprehensive marine co-ordination centre capable of providing 24/7 service to offshore operations across the UK and beyond”.

Dong already supports its operating 210MW Westermost Rough project from Grimsby. Subject to planning approval, the new facility will be built next to the existing support hub on land leased from Associated British Ports, with the first new SOV arriving late next year.

Dong UK chairman Brent Cheshire claims the Grimsby investment is a “massive vote of confidence” in the Humber region, where it plans to invest £6bn ($6.93bn) by 2019.

The era of fast-falling turbine prices is over, says Nordex bossBERND RADOWITZ

The fast and damaging decline of wind turbine prices that has troubled the industry in recent years has stopped, José Luis Blanco, chief executive of the Nordex Group, told Recharge.

“We see that the rapid decrease in prices has come to an end. They are stabilising,” he said.

“We have highly-competitive new products tailored for volume as well as for growth markets, and we are positive that we, and the industry, can expect better prices in the coming years.”

His view is supported by Wood

The Nordic countries are leading the way into a future where subsidy-free onshore wind will

be the norm, Vestas’ Northern and Central Europe president Nils de Baar told Recharge.

“We believe all markets will go through the same transformation from having a regulated feed-in tariff, to going into auctions — which we see now in a majority of markets — [before] ending up in merchant environments,” de Baar said in an interview.

“If planning policy allows us to install the latest and most efficient technology with scale, then we believe the technology will take us to merchant onshore wind projects.

“Some countries will take longer, but eventually all will get there. That’s based on the fact we see now across the board, that wind is the

most economic source of energy. We believe that will be the future.”

De Baar’s comments came after Vestas announced first orders for subsidy-free projects in the UK and Denmark. The wind OEM received

an order for a merchant project in Finland last year.
