Task 19 Work plan

Transcription

1 Task 19 Work plan Operating Agent Ville Lehtomäki, VTT Updated Wind power plant maintenance in northern Sweden

2 Background and Goals Cold climate* (CC) sites around the world offer good wind energy potential in demanding winter climates >60GW installed at the end of 2012 ~50GW forecasted ( ) Task 19 main mission & goal is to increase and disseminate knowledge & information of CC -> contribute to lowering the costs and reducing the risks of wind energy deployment in cold climates *Cold Climate refers to both low temperature and/or icing conditions

3 Needs from Cold Climate wind industry 1. Best practices, guidelines and standards for cold climate* 2. Reliable retrofit Ice Protection system yesterday! 3. Ice Protection System gains to AEP** & lifetime 4. Reliable ice detection techniques for rotor and site assessment* 5. Mapping and forecasting of ice *: WinterWind 2015 & 2016 conference survey **: Quebéc Wind Conference 2014 Task 19 workshop

4 Task 19 motivation Content Work plan overview Deployment of wind energy in cold climate Increase industrial awareness and interest Market study update Validation of IEA site ice classification Ice measurements, forecasting and mapping Better tools for site condition and energy yield assessment Ice sensor classification Ice mapping Topics Towards certified practices for cold climate solutions Bringing cold climate issues in guidelines and standards Work with IEC Site assessment T19IceLossMethod software development and validation Safety and acceptance Removing cold climate specific barriers International ice throw guidelines Laboratory and full scale testing Ice protection system performance evaluation guidelines Deliverables New cold climate practices to international standard IEC Site assessment Market study update Maintain and update open source software T19IceLossMethod International Ice Throw Guideline Update Available Technologies report Update Recommended practices report Communication Web site Workshops Free software Presentations at conferences Countries ALL FI, SU, SE, DK, CA ALL AU, SU, CA

7 Detailed work Plan for 2016 (1/2) Initiate Market Study Update for (similar as was done for BTM WMU in 2012) Existing CC markets by 2015 in MWs Forecasted markets for in MWs Better, more realistic methodology Publish in a wind energy magazine? Prepare initial text for IEC Site energy yield assessment regarding cold climate issues OA participates all IEC meetings as minimum (next in June & October 2016) Prepare appropriate background documents Clarify when icing measurements are needed

8 Detailed work Plan for 2016 (2/2) Initiate ice protection system assessment guidelines Define minimum information needed for assessment of performance footprint for site specific conditions Initiate international ice throw guidelines Call for external experts Working group formation Detailed work plan (test cases etc)
