1. Wind turbine wakes : controland vortex shedding
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

2. Energy Policy Instruments Perspectives on their Choice, Combination and Evaluation
Abstract : Abstract The thesis aims at providing a better understanding of public policy instruments used in policy-making within the energy sector, particularly regarding their role in the change towards an increased use of renewable energy sources for generation of electricity. The research was guided by an underlying assumption that a markedly higher proportion of the energy generated from renewable sources can be considerably enhanced by use of policy instruments that support the development and the market creation of new, renewable energy technologies.

3. Wind-wave interaction effects on offshore wind energy
Abstract : This thesis is devoted to the investigation of the impacts of fast moving ocean surface waves on the aerodynamics of offshore wind turbines. The impacts of non-locally generated waves (swell) on the Marine Atmospheric BoundaryLayer (MABL) and thereby on offshore wind turbine aerodynamics are studied numerically by using Large Eddy Simulations and the Actuator Line Method.

4. Wind-turbine harmonic emissions and propagation through a wind farm
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. Analysis and Forecasting of Utility-Scale Hybrid Wind and PV Power Parks
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.
