3 Agenda Basics of Wind Energy Energy Blowing in the wind Renewable Advantages Growth What is life cycle of a wind project? Steps Timeframe Cost Funding requirements Wind energy versus other methods of generating electricity 2/4/2011 3
4 Module Objectives Learning Objectives Understand basics of wind energy. What factors influence amount of energy produced? Understand basics of wind turbine generator (WTG). What are the major components of WTG? What are the new developments? What are the steps in a wind project lifecycle? What are the timelines, activities and deliverables? 2/4/2011 4
5 Basics of Wind Energy: Energy is blowing in the wind Wind is a form of solar energy Uneven heating of earth Heating of ground versus water 2/4/ Source:
6 Basics of Wind Energy Power in Watts Turbine of rotor radius = 1 m Power in wind = ½ A v 3 = ½ r 2 v 3 Units of Power: kilo- Watts, mega-watts, giga- Watts Energy = Power * Time Units of energy: kilo-watt Hours (kwh), MWh, GWh Power in KW Wind Speed, m/s Wind speed = 8 m/s Radius of a HAWT in meters 2/4/ Source: P. Jain, Wind Energy Engineering, 2010
7 Basics of Wind Energy Wind speed vs. elevation above ground level Density vs. height above sea level 2% at 200m 17.8% at 2000m Density as a function of humidity 0.6% at 100% relative humidity Power Production Curve of Turbine The power of the wind is converted according to the power curve (red curve) The Ce curve (green curve) gives the conversion ratio. How much the wind energy is converted to electricity 2/4/ Source: P. Jain, Wind Energy Engineering, 2010
8 Basics of Wind Turbines 1. Pitch drives. 2. Rotor that connects blades to main shaft. 3. Main shaft. 4. Main bearing. 5. Gearbox. 6. Yaw drive. 7. Disk brakes. 8. Brake hydraulic system. 9. Generator. 10. Main hydraulic system. 11. Nacelle frame. 12. Yaw brakes. 2/4/ Source: P. Jain, Wind Energy Engineering, 2010
9 Basics of Generators and Electrical Grid Three types of generators Double Fed Induction Generator Gearbox to increase speed of generator rotor Generator is smaller in size but high speed Optimal energy capture in a narrow wind speed range Direct Drive Synchronous Generator No gearbox Generator size is large in size, but lower speed Optimal energy capture in a bigger wind speed range Direct Drive Permanent Magnet No gearbox Generator size is large in size but lower speed Optimal energy capture in a bigger wind speed range Full power conversion 2/4/ Source: P.

10 Advantages of Wind Energy No fuel costs No variability in cost of energy production, other than O&M costs Revenue to local land owners with out substantially altering land use Boost to the local economy during construction and through out life of project Boost to infrastructure Zero emissions Zero water use Zero mining of fuels Zero transportation of fuels Clean energy 90 to 95% of land can be used for the original purpose Wind-hydro hybrid can provide a powerful combination for yearround energy production Wind-diesel hybrid can provide reliable power to remote areas 2/4/
11 Disadvantages of Wind Power Intermittent energy production: Electricity is produced only when wind is blowing There is still need for traditional power plants (hydro or fossil fuelbased) to provide base-load Wind energy replaces peaking units or spinning reserves High capital investment Incentives are required for investors, but not much different compared to other sources New transmission lines may be needed from remote areas to cities Large foot print of wind farms. In interior areas, 30 to 60 acres per MW In coastal areas with single row of turbines, 2 to 5 acres per MW Note most of land can be used for other purposes Birds/bat fatalities Visual impact Noise, and others High levels of wind energy (>30%) in grid may require variety of upgrades to the entire electricity network 2/4/

17 Wind Project Life Cycle 3 months to evaluate multiple sites Development: 4 steps. 18 to 36 mos. Cost= $10 to $20 per kw* At least 15 months. 2 to 3 yrs for large wind farms Locale specific: 6 to 12 months Locale specific: 3 mos Prospecting Wind Resource Assessment Siting: Permits, EIA, Interconnection PPA Financing 5 Criteria: Wind, env. grid, cost, rev Operations & Maintenance Construction Installation Commissioning Engineering Procurement Contracting Ongoing $40/KW per year Faster than1 turbine/mo Cost=$ /kW, includes BOP Locale specific: 3 to 24 mos Turbine Cost=$ /kw *For large projects of size > 20MW. Does not include financing costs (range: $50- $100/kW) 2/4/ Pramod Jain; Sept. 22, 2010
18 Prospecting Goal: Identify a handful of areas that have a good wind resource Compute wind speed and wind energy estimates based on publicly available wind data: Airport, NCAR, Weather stations Tools: RetScreen Energy estimate: +/- 50% Other factors in site selection: Grid connection, buyer, construction cost, environmental factors 3 months $5 to 10K After site(s) have been selected, Obtain site control through leases 2/4/
19 Wind Resource Assessment Goal: Quantify wind resources Measure wind speed. Compute wind energy estimates based on at least one year of measurement and long-term reference data Tools: WindPRO, Wind Farmer Energy estimate: +/- 15% 15 to 36 months Cost: $10 to 15K per MW 2/4/
20 Siting: Permitting, EIA, Interconnection Environmental Impact Assessment Wildlife: Migratory birds & bats, local birds & bats and terrestrial wildlife Water resources and wetlands Neighboring communities: Noise, shadow flicker, viewshed Permits Power producer Construction & Transportation Zoning Environmental Others: Long-range radar interference Telecommunications interference Obstruction to aviation Interconnection Agreement to connect to the grid Agreement on the quality of power 2/4/
21 PPA, Financing PPA Agreement with buyer of energy about price of energy and conditions for purchase In most cases, this is a standard Power purchase agreement Preliminary Project Design & Engineering Prepare maps and survey Design layout of turbines, access roads, storage areas, substation, local office and transmission lines. Financing Create a project financing package for presentation to investors Negotiate terms with tax-equity investors, other equity investors and lenders 2/4/
22 Engineering, Procurement and Contracting EPC or turnkey contracts are the most common contract; components are: Prespecified delivery timeframe and cost Prespecified level of production and quality Project Engineering Layout, civil engineering of infrastructure Foundation design Electrical design Logistics planning and design Procurement of turbines Wind condition and locale specific 2/4/
23 Construction, Installation and Commissioning Transportation May be a significant challenge, depends on location: Bridges, roads, ports, hauling equipment Construction & Installation Infrastructure Site preparation Foundation construction Turbine Erection Collection system and substation construction Commissioning Objective: Ensure wind plant is safe to operate, produces energy in a reliable manner and acceptable quality List of outstanding issues 95% availability during 250 hours of continuous operation End result: Handover of project from contractor to owner 2/4/

31 Cost of New Generation 2/4/
32 Utility Scale versus Small Scale Installed costs: $2/W Taller structures, capture higher wind speed Lesser turbulence In wind farms the scale of energy production justifies dedicated O&M team resulting in higher production Installed costs: $5 to $10 per Watt Shorter structures, wind speed is lower Higher turbulence due to surface roughness No dedicated O&M team, higher chances of long downtime Roof-top and other types of small turbines are usually not financially viable 2/4/
33 Conclusions In most countries wind energy is the fastest growing new source of electrical energy Wind projects cost about $1500 to $2000 per kw Timeframe for wind projects is 24 to 36 months Wind project lifecycle has a large number of steps Attention to details and rigorous due diligence during development phase can mitigate risk of delays and cost overruns 2/4/
