OFFSHORE GRID CONNECTION Track: GRIDS Tuesday, 15 September 2009, 11:00 - 12:30 |
Room K11
Chair:
Frans van Hulle, European Wind Energy Association (EWEA)
Bo Normark, Power Circle / Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences (IVA)

Session description The session will seek to answer the issue of how to optimally connect wind farms and the electrical network from a technical and economic point of view with due regard to reliability. A design concept of offshore HV AC platforms for connecting large wind farms will be outlined. An integrated design approach will be presented, which reduces the risk by providing an optimised solution for the complete electrical system from single turbine to the fixed grid. The session will also present a methodology for increasing the reliability of offshore wind farms by providing redundancy in the offshore transmission assets in an economically optimised way. Finally, the session will highlight methods of meeting stability requirements and grid compliance by the use of STATCOMS. |
