10 Upscaling of offshore wind power from Horns Rev 2 North Europe 2020/ E N 7 1 Horns Rev 2 (0.21 GW) North Europe: 41 GW in GW in DTU Wind Energy, Technical University of Denmark

11 Upscaling approach Simulation tool: CorWind Addition of high wind shutdown / startup rules Model to aggregate at wind farm level Simulation of single wind farm Hysteresis model implemented in CorWind 8 full met years of simulation Assuming persistence forecasts (conservative assumption!) 11 DTU Wind Energy, Technical University of Denmark

12 Large scale challenge: Adequacy of primary reserves There must be sufficient primary reserves in the power system synchronous area to replace lost production corresponding to dimensioning fault This brings power system from normal state to alert state Frequency restoration (secondary / tertiary) reserves will return system to normal state in 15 minutes Larger faults (loss of generation) may bring system into disturbed (or emergency) state Therefore, maximum 15 minute wind power forecast errors are essential to esure adequacy of primary reserves Synchronous Area Dimensioning faultt MW Continental 3,000 Nordic 1,200 GB 1,800 Ireland 500 Nordic grid code DTU Wind Energy, Technical University of Denmark

13 Upscaling results and conclusion Result for 2020 indicates that there is sufficient primary reserves with current dimensioning fault to cover offshore wind power variability in the four main European synchronous areas Result for 2030 indicates that there is not sufficient primary reserves with current dimensioning fault to cover offshore wind power variability in Continental and GB synchronous areas Current requirements for primary reserves should be revised by 2030 to maintain secure operation Further studies will be done using more realistic forecast simulations than persistence Synchronous Area HWSD HWEP Dimensioning faultt MW MW MW Continental 1,661 1,548 3,000 Nordic ,200 GB 1,212 1,222 1,800 Ireland Synchronous Area HWSD HWEP Dimensioning faultt MW MW MW Continental 4,729 3,933 3,000 Nordic ,200 GB 4,418 4,440 1,800 Ireland DTU Wind Energy, Technical University of Denmark
