19 Specific requirements of the grid for wind energy In order to integrate a big amount of wing generation in the Italian electric system, maintaining the security and quality conditions, it is appropriate that wind generation meet some requirements : Capability to not disconnect during short-circuits Participation in solving technical restrinctions, specially in critical stability situation Participation in voltage regulation Participation in frequency regulation Forecast of the production All issues are under discussion with the Italian Regulator

20 Network development process The Development Plan is worked yearly out according to the planning scenarios, on the basis of: Demand growth per each area Development of new production units (Thermal + Wind) Location of new generation on the territory Signals from the power exchange

21 Network Development Plan in Italy Characterization of new investments 380 kv 220 kv kv Total New transformers (MVA) Short-medium term Medium-long term Lines (km) Short-medium term Medium-long term

22 Authorization problems Difficulties in building new high voltage lines due to authorisation problems People opposition linked to increased (excessive) environmental sensitivity, often connected to EMF Difficulties in identifying new feasible routes due to intense human territorial penetration Lack of integration between electrical and territorial/environmental planning Unsatisfactory results and uncertain timetable of present authorization procedures (EIA)

23 Main issues in developing the network TSOs not in charge of power plants localization Localization based on different technical & economical reasons (not linked to network presence) Brown fields & existing infrastructures Cogeneration Exploitation of wind & hydro resources Presence of the natural gas network Acceptance by resident people and municipalities Weak Locational Signals, not EU coordinated Network development to be consistent with market requirements

24 SEA Strategic Environmental Assessment A new tool to gather consensous EC Directive 42/2001 introduced the public evaluation of developments plans, including electricity infrastructure plans Support tool to find macro options during the localization phase Better co-ordination of network and territorial planning Introduction of network & infrastructure corridors Better involvement of central & local authorities

25 SEA Exclusion/Repulsion/Attraction (ERA) criteria ERA Criteria - Legend and examples E1 = Exclusion Law constraints (military areas, airports) E2 = Exclusion Social & Environment factors (cities, lakes, archaeol. sites) E3 = Exclusion Hydro-geological constraints (landslide areas, etc. E4 = Exclusion Other environmental constraints (regional and national parks: can evolve in R1 in absence of alternatives) R1 = Repulsion Constraints which may be overcome in absence of alternatives (Sites of Community Importance, Special Protected Zones) R2 = Repulsion Constraints which may be overcome by implementing technical prescriptions (pylones painting, distances) N = Neutral areas No localization influence A1 = Attraction Presence of natural elements which hide new constructions A2 = Attraction Preferential areas (Infrastructure corridors, industrial areas)

26 SEA Preferential corridors and routes Route 1 Exclusion Area Station A Station B Repulsion Area Route 2 (Preferential)
