  1. 16. Impact of offtake mechanisms on wind turbine selection and design in North and Central Europe

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Gesa Reiter; [2023]
    Keywords : Wind energy; offtake mechanisms; wind turbine configuration and design; rated power; capacity factor; Renewable Energy Sources Act; EEG; PPA; merchant; profitability; NPV; IRR; Vindkraft; upphandlingsmekanismer; vindturbiners konfiguration och utformning; nominell effekt; kapacitetsfaktor; lagen om förnybara energikällor; EEG; energiköpsavtal; handelsprissättning; lönsamhet; NPV; IRR;

    Abstract : Wind power has become a major supplier of electricity in the European market in the last years. In 2020, 13% of electricity generated on the European continent was wind energy (onshore and offshore) and these shares are projected to increase in the next years due to reasons such as climate change and the energy security aspect.

  2. 17. Decarbonisation of service vessels in offshore wind power through power-to-X self-sufficiency

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Miljö- och energisystem

    Author : Clemens Kellander; Ludvig Fredriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : Alternative fuels; compressed hydrogen; battery; production; energy storage; operation and maintenance; O M; offshore; wind power; service vessel; crew transfer vessel; CTV; service operations vessel; SOV; decarbonisation; global warming potential; life cycle; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This report examines the possibilities of decarbonising operation & maintenance vessels for a prospective floating offshore wind power park at the Utsira Nord site in Norway, through self-sufficient energy carrier production utilizing power-to-X-solutions. Possible alternative fuels are identified as compressed hydrogen, batteries, liquid hydrogen, ammonia, methanol, and biofuels, out of which the former two are the subject for thorough investigation in this report.

  3. 18. Dynamics of a CRAFT : A simulation study on a Counter Rotating vertical Axis Floating Tilting wind turbine

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Elektricitetslära

    Author : Benjamin Hedlund Peters; Linda Goude; [2023]
    Keywords : wind power; counter rotating; contra rotating; offshore wind; floating wind power; vertical axis wind turbine; VAWT; renewable energy;

    Abstract : In this thesis the Counter Rotating vertical Axis Floating Tilting wind turbine (CRAFT) has been explored by creating a simulation model in the program Simulink. The CRAFT prototype is a new type of wind turbine under development by World Wide Wind and Uppsala University with the aim to produce a large scale floating vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT) with two cone shaped counter rotating turbines.

  4. 19. Modelling the onshore wind energy in thirty European countries

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Zhenye Wang; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This thesis studies the modeling of onshore wind energy in thirty European countries. This study extends the representation of onshore wind energy in the Open Source Energy Model Base for the European Union (OSeMBE). OSeMBE is a model built in the Open Source Energy Modeling System (OSeMOSYS). READ MORE
