2. 6. Wind turbine wakes : controland vortex shedding

   Author : Davide Medici; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wind Energy; Power Optimisation; Active Control; Yaw; Vortex; Mechanical energy engineering; Mekanisk energiteknik;

   Abstract : Wind tunnel studies of the wake behind a model wind turbine have been made in order to get a better understanding of wake development as well as the possibility to predict the power output from downstream turbines working in the wake of an upstream one. Both two-component hot-wire anemometry as well as particle image velocimetry (PIV) have been used to map the flow field. READ MORE

4. 7. Wind-turbine harmonic emissions and propagation through a wind farm

   Author : Kai Yang; Åke Larsson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Renewable energy; Electric power system; Wind power; Power quality; Power system harmonics; Electric Power Engineering; Elkraftteknik; Energy Engineering; Energiteknik;

   Abstract : The increasing demand for sustainable energy is one of the driving forces behind the increasing use of wind power by means of wind-turbines in electric power systems. Modern wind turbines commonly employ variable-speed-generator technology associated with a power-electronic converter as part of the grid connection. READ MORE

5. 8. Analysis and Forecasting of Utility-Scale Hybrid Wind and PV Power Parks

   Author : Oskar Lindberg; David Lingfors; Joakim Munkhammar; Johan Arnqvist; Jakub Jurasz; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; co-located; probabilistic; forecasting; trading; wind; solar; variability; Engineering Science with specialization in Civil Engineering and Built Environment; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot byggteknik och byggd miljö;

   Abstract : The increasing share of wind and photovoltaic (PV) power in the electricity generation mix pose challenges in power system management due to their non-dispatchable and intermittent nature. Co-locating wind and PV parks, forming utility-scale hybrid power parks (HPPs), means that the sources can share grid connection, land, permitting procedures as well as operation and maintenance work.

6. 9. Variation management for cost-efficient integration of variable renewable electricity

   Author : Viktor Walter; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Flexibility measures; Energy storage; Energy system modelling; Renewable Energy;

   Abstract : The aim of this work is to improve our understanding of how wind power and solar photovoltaics (PV) can be integrated into the electricity system in a cost-efficient manner. For this, a techno-economic cost-minimising model of the electricity system is used for a set of case studies. READ MORE

7. 10. Sustainability of rural energy access in developing countries

   Author : Brijesh Mainali; Semida Silveira; Benjamin Sovacool; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy Access; Rural electrification; Rural energy; Household; Renewable energy; Off-grid; Mini-grid; Grid; Pathways; Fuel choice; Indicator; Sustainability index; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

   Abstract : The importance of access to modern energy has been well understood by governments and donor agencies in many developing countries, and significant effort has been made in recent years to address energy access challenges. However, despite these efforts, the International Energy Agency (IEA) has predicted that the energy access problem will remain unresolved by 2030. READ MORE
