NMS-6000 Riffgrund more then just noise mitigation Pile integrity by integrated functionality Each contractor is not only using a piling hammer. A lot of tools and equipment is involved, consuming: Deck space Operators Energy Controls Handling time Costs Etc.. Combining functionality in one piece of equipment is: Speeding up the installation Increasing workability Ensuring accurate installation Eliminating risks Reducing costs

Eneco Luchterduinen Lidar Buoy Leon van der Meijden Eneco Wind

Lidar Buoy Wind, wave and current measurements from floating buoy instead of fixed met mast Avoiding big investments in early phase of a project (long before FID) Cost saving; couple of million euros, subject to site conditions 12 juni 2015 Winddag 2015: Innovation need and necessity 25

Lidar Buoy Innovation: Combine a number of sensors to obtain detailed in-situ MetOcean data; 3 directional wave sensor 3-axis motion sensor windsonic acoustic wind sensor Air pressure, air temperature and humidity sensor 600kHz current profiler ZephIR 300S Lidar 12 juni 2015 Winddag 2015: Innovation need and necessity 26

Lidar Buoy Validated near the RWE fixed Met Mast at IJmuiden Ver. DNV GL independent assessment: DNV GL concludes that the Lidar buoy has formally qualified for Stage 2 precommercial in the context of the Floating LiDAR Commercial Roadmap. Currently deployed at Navitus Bay project (UK) 12 juni 2015 Winddag 2015: Innovation need and necessity 27

Dynamic Power Management In search for cost-savings and improvements in the value chain. General idea: Lower CoE and higher ROI of offshore windenergy through integral approach of windfarm, grid connection and energy market. Idea 1: Dynamic cable rating. Idea 2: Can wind energy anticipate to electricity fluctuations (and contribute to frequency-stability)? Idea 3: Optimise wind turbines/farms to reduce costs further down the value chain. 12 juni 2015 Winddag 2015: Innovation need and necessity 29

Dynamic Power Management Result from 1: Dynamic cable rating leads to cost savings up to 2%. Result from 2: Wind operators can gain additional income by participating in market for Tertiary Control Reserve. Results from 3: Lower Power Density => more predictable Storm control => more energy & more predictable Overbooking => lower COE Lower direction dependency => more predictable Results 12 juni 2015 Winddag 2015: Innovation need and necessity 30

Dynamic Power Management Key conclusion: Utilization rate of infrastructure and site location can be improved. Next steps Key question: How to reach, involve and commit key stakeholders? The answer lies in creating the right incentives (Subsidy scheme and tender rules) 12 juni 2015 Winddag 2015: Innovation need and necessity 31

Zbridge Reinout Prins Ztechnologies technologies

Zbridge Zbridge facilitates crew and 1 T cargo transfer to offshore windturbines from W2W vessels. 100 % redundancy - integration in all drive and controll systems. FMEA analysis has been succesfully performed, resulting in certification of the system by Bureau Veritas In combination with the increased weather window, the possibility to transfer cargo and crew results in a considerable cost reduction ( ECN- O&M-calculator) technologies 12 juni 2015 Winddag 2015: Innovation need and necessity 33

Zbridge Innovative is the compensation-system, which garantuees the verticality of the column during all vessel movements, with a minimum of energy. It is the only system which facilitates the transfer of crew and cargo, crane operation, in the same time increasing the operational weather window technologies 12 juni 2015 Winddag 2015: Innovation need and necessity 34

Zbridge - During May-June 2015 the prototype is undergoing test trials - Offshore testing is planned for July 2015 - Zbridge will be available for commercial operations from August 2015 technologies 12 juni 2015 Winddag 2015: Innovation need and necessity 35
