Wind providing balancing reserves : an application to the German electricity system of 2025
Lorenz, Casimir; Gerbaulet, Clemens - 2017
This paper analyzes the influence of wind turbines as new participants on prices and allocation within balancing markets. We introduce the cost-minimizing electricity sector model ELMOD-MIP, that includes detailed unit-commitment constraints, complex combined heat and power constraints, and...

Distributional Equity in the Employment and Wage Impacts of Energy Transitions
Gilbert, Benjamin; Gagarin, Hannah; Hoen, Ben - National Bureau of Economic Research - 2023
We use restricted-access, geocoded data on the near-universe of workers in 23 U.S. states in order to quantify the impact of wind energy development on local earnings and employment, by race, ethnicity, sex, and educational attainment. We find the largest relative impacts for workers without a...

Modelling the Evolution of Wind and Solar Power Infeed Forecasts
Li, Wei - 2020
With the increasing integration of wind and photovoltaic power in the whole European power system, there is a longing for detecting how to trade energy in the ever-changing intraday market from electric power industries. The intraday trading becomes even more relevant in the wake of the European...

Carbon price and wind power support in Denmark
Gavard, Claire - 2015
This paper aims at characterizing the conditions of wind power deployment in order to infer a carbon price level that would provide wind power with comparable advantage over fossil fuel technologies as effective wind support policies. The analysis is conducted on Danish data from 2000 to 2010,...

Characteristics of a highly efficient propeller type small wind turbine with a diffuser
Matsushima, Toshio; Takagi, Shinya; Muroyama, Seiichi - In: Renewable Energy 31 (2006) 9, pp. 1343-1354
We studied the improved effects a diffuser had on the output power of small wind turbine systems, aiming to introduce … these systems to radio relay stations as an independent power supply system. A frustum-shaped diffuser was chosen from an … economical standpoint and wind speed distribution. The effect the diffuser's shape had on the wind speed was analyzed by …

Wind Power Decreases the Need for Storage in an Interconnected 100% Renewable European Power Sector
Roth, Alexander; Schill, Wolf-Peter - 2022
The massive expansion of wind power and solar PV is the primary strategy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in many countries. Due to their variable generation profiles, power sector flexibility needs to increase. Geographical balancing enabled by electricity grids and temporal flexibility...

Site assessment, turbine selection, and local feed-in tariffs through the wind energy index
Ritter, Matthias; Deckert, Lars - 2015
Since wind energy is rapidly growing, new wind farms are installed worldwide and a discussion is going on concerning the optimal political framework to promote this development. In this paper, we present a wind energy index, which is supportive for wind park planners, operators, and...

The impact of climate change on wind and solar resources in southern Africa
Fant, Charles; Schlosser, C. Adam - 2013
Climate change is an issue that requires global attention and co-operation. As climate science develops an understanding of changes to the future climate state, policy makers and engineering project planners beg to know what claims can be made on the subject with a reasonable level of...
