    KOPENHAGEN, 25 november (Reuters) - Denemarken houdt op 1 december een loterij om de winnaar te kiezen van een wedstrijd voor de bouw van het Thor offshore windmolenpark van 1 gigawatt, dat het grootste van het land zal zijn, nadat er verschillende biedingen waren gedaan met een minimale subsidie prijs bijna nul, zei het op donderdag.

    Het project is een van de drie grote offshore windparken die Denemarken vóór 2030 wil hebben gebouwd als onderdeel van zijn plannen om de koolstofemissies tegen 2030 te verminderen tot 70% onder het niveau van 1990.

    Het Deense Energieagentschap zei dat het een aantal bieders uitnodigde om deel te nemen aan de trekking, nadat het verschillende aanbiedingen had ontvangen voor de minimumprijs van 0,01 øre/kWh (0,0001 Deense kronen) en de volledige capaciteit.

    De aanbesteding is gebaseerd op een zogenaamd Contract for Difference (CfD)-schema, wat inhoudt dat de winnaar gegarandeerd een minimumprijs voor zijn elektriciteit krijgt.

    Wanneer de groothandelsprijs voor stroom stijgt tot boven de CfD-uitoefenprijs, die in dit geval bijna nul is, zal de generator extra geld aan de overheid terugbetalen totdat een plafond van 2,8 miljard Deense kronen ($ 423 miljoen) is bereikt.

    Dit zal waarschijnlijk binnen twee tot drie jaar gebeuren en daarna zal de generator volgens de Deense windlobbygroep WindDenmark alleen geld verdienen met de verkoop van stroom tegen marktvoorwaarden.

    De stijgende vraag naar windenergie, technologische vooruitgang en concurrentie tussen turbinefabrikanten hebben geleid tot een daling van het niveau van de subsidies die overheden betalen om projecten te laten bouwen. Sommige landen hebben zelfs aanbestedingen gegund zonder prijsondersteuning.

    Het Deense project heeft belangstelling getrokken van traditionele windspelers zoals Orsted en bedrijven zoals de Franse oliegigant TotalEnergies, die voor de veiling samenwerkte met het Spaanse Iberdrola.

    Andere bieders zijn het Zweedse Vattenfall, een joint venture tussen het Nederlandse energiebedrijf Eneco en het Deense European Energy, evenals een gezamenlijk bod van het Britse nutsbedrijf SSE en Thor OFW. Ook het Duitse RWE participeert via een dochteronderneming.

    Thor zal naar verwachting tussen 2025 en 2027 op het net worden aangesloten en de totale investeringskosten worden geschat op 15,5 miljard kronen.

    Het hoofd van Siemens Gamesa waarschuwde woensdag dat een tien jaar durende race om de kosten van het opwekken van windenergie te verlagen, niet kon doorgaan, omdat het de financiële slagkracht van turbineproducenten zou verminderen om te blijven investeren in nieuwe technologieën.

    Published on :
    30 Nov, 2021, 5:30 am

    SSE Renewables and Equinor, the joint venture partners co-developing the 3.6GW Dogger Bank Wind Farm in the North Sea, have announced that 15-year offtake Power Purchase Agreements have been signed for the third phase of the world’s largest offshore wind farm. Dogger Bank Wind Farm will be constructed over 130km out to sea off the north-east coast of England, where wind speeds are higher and more consistent than near to the shore. Due to its size and scale, Dogger Bank Wind Farm is being built in three consecutive 1.2GW phases; Dogger Bank A, Dogger Bank B and Dogger Bank C. Each phase is expected to generate around 6TWh of electricity annually, totalling 18TWh annually across all three phases – that’s enough renewable electricity to supply 5% of the UK’s demand and equivalent to powering six million UK homes.

    Separate PPAs for a total of 1.2GW for Dogger Bank C have been concluded with sponsor offtakers Danske Commodities (40% share) on behalf of Equinor and SSE Energy Supply Limited (20% share) on behalf of SSE Renewables, and also with external offtakers Centrica Energy Marketing and Trading (20% share) and Shell Energy Europe Limited (20% share). The agreements are subject to Financial Close on Dogger Bank C, which is expected by the end of 2021.

    Danske Commodities will have trading and balancing responsibility for 480MW while Centrica Energy Marketing and Trading, Shell Energy Europe, and SSE Energy Supply will have responsibility for 240MW each of installed generation capacity across Dogger Bank C.

    Dogger Bank Wind Farm secured 3.6GW of offshore wind contracts in the UK Government’s 2019 Contracts for Difference (CfD) auctions. The CfDs awarded provide overall price certainty to each phase of Dogger Bank Wind Farm for a period of 15 years.

    Jan De Nul & LS Cable Complete Wind Farms Submarine Power Cables

    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    30 Nov, 2021, 5:30 am

    LS Cable & System and Jan De Nul Group announce the completion of the first lot of submarine power cables for TenneT’s offshore projects Hollandse Kust noord and west Alpha in the Netherlands. Jan De Nul’s cable laying vessel Isaac Newton will load the 220 kV AC cables from LS Cable’s factory in Donghae, South Korea, and transport them to the project for installation in April 2022.

    This first lot consists of the complete cables for Hollandse Kust (noord) and the nearshore section for the Hollandse Kust (west Alpha). In total, this is more than 90 km of cables, weighing 7,160 tonnes and having very large cross sections resulting in an overall cable diameter of more than 25 cm. Jan De Nul Group and LS Cable & System are jointly responsible for the design, supply, installation, protection and testing of the 210 km of submarine power cables for HKn and HKwA of TenneT. Delivery of the HKn project is foreseen by the end of 2022. The HKwA project is planned to be finished by the end of 2023. Both windfarms have an installed capacity of 700 MW. This means they will generate together the amount of energy that is used yearly by approx. 1.4 million Dutch households.

    The cable laying vessel Isaac Newton will install the cables on the seabed. In the nearshore area, the in-house developed tracked vertical injector Moonfish will bury the cables up to 8 m below the seabed level. The burial offshore is taken care of by the trencher UTV1200, supported by the multipurpose vessel Adhémar de Saint-Venant. Jan De Nul will also install multiple cable protection systems and rock berms at the cable crossings along the route.

    Jan De Nul’s scope includes the transport and installation of the submarine power cables. LS Cable is responsible for the design, manufacturing, termination and testing of the submarine power cables, as well as for the 10.5 km of land cables and approximately 1 km of platform cables. The land and platform cables were already successfully manufactured and transported to the project site earlier in 2021.

    About the submarine cables

    Nominal voltage of 220 kV AC

    Overall cable diameter of more than 25 cm

    Minimal amount of factory joints

    In-house developed joints and terminations

    Integrated 144 fibres using 3 loose tubes stainless steel FO cables

    About the Hollandse Kust (noord) and (west Alpha) project

    With the Hollandse Kust (north) and (west Alpha) projects, TenneT takes care of the connection of the wind farms in the North Sea to the national electricity grid (Grid at Sea), and of the wind farms to be constructed in the North Sea to the national electricity grid (Net op Zee.

    TenneT is constructing two offshore platforms, one for Hollandse Kust (noord) and one for Hollandse Kust (west Alpha). These platforms gather the wind energy generated by the corresponding wind farms and transform this energy from a voltage of 66kV to 220kV.

    To transport the energy to the mainland, two submarine power cable systems per platform run from the offshore platform to the onshore grid, meaning in total four cable systems. They arrive on land just north of Wijk aan Zee, in the municipality of Heemskerk.

    A new onshore transformer station is being built to transform the energy further to a voltage of 380kV.

    The construction of the Grid at Sea and the wind farms is being carried out on behalf of the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate.

    LM Wind Power to Produce Zero Waste Blades by 2030

    Strategic Research Institute
    Published on :
    01 Dec, 2021, 5:30 am

    GE Renewable Energy LM Wind Power announces that it will produce zero waste blades by 2030, a significant milestone for the industry as it seeks to reduce the carbon footprint of its products. The commitment represents a step forward in the company’s sustainability journey after becoming the first carbon neutral business in the wind industry already in 2018. LM Wind Power will play a central role in supporting its customers to develop fully circular wind turbines that generate less waste during their production. In practice, LM Wind Power’s vision of zero waste blades means the company aims to send no excess manufacturing materials and packaging to landfill and incineration without energy recovery by 2030.

    Waste from manufacturing represents one of the biggest challenges faced by many industries as they seek to reduce their carbon footprint. At LM Wind Power, nearly one third of its operational carbon footprint comes from waste disposal.

    In the wind industry, around 20-25% of the materials purchased by wind turbine blade manufacturers do not go into the final product, and research indicates that blade manufacturing waste volumes are expected to be larger than decommissioned blade volumes during the coming decade.

    For wind turbine and blade manufacturers alike, the key to reducing the product carbon footprint lies in the supply chain. In the blade life cycle, around 75% of CO2 emissions occur in the supply chain.

    While blade manufacturing waste prevention and recycling will be a major focus for the company, LM Wind Power is also working with partners to establish sustainable, large-scale solutions to recycle decommissioned blades through the DecomBlades project. The company is also working on the development of next generation blades that can be more easily recycled through the ZEBRA (Zero Waste Blade Research) project.

    Ørsted neemt definitief investeringsbesluit over twee Duitse offshore windparken
    12/01/2021 | 09:11 uur EST

    1.12.2021 15:10:38 CET| Ørsted A/S | Investeerdersnieuws

    De raad van bestuur van Ørsted heeft de definitieve investeringsbeslissing (FID) genomen voor de twee Duitse offshore windparken Gode Wind 3 (242 MW) en Borkum Riffgrund 3 (900 MW), die naar verwachting respectievelijk in 2024 en 2025 in gebruik zullen worden genomen.

    Rasmus Errboe, hoofd van de regio Continentaal Europa bij Ørsted, zei: "Borkum Riffgrund 3 is een mijlpaalproject en we zijn er trots op dat Ørsted opnieuw het voortouw neemt door als eerste FID te nemen in een koopvaardij offshore windproject in Duitsland. We hebben dit project naar voren gehaald door verschillende grootschalige overeenkomsten voor de aankoop van stroom te ondertekenen met toonaangevende bedrijven, een partner voor 50% van het windpark binnen te halen en Borkum Riffgrund 3 en Gode Wind 3 aan te schaffen en te installeren als één gigawatt-schaalproject. ”

    Jörg Kubitza, directeur van Ørsted in Duitsland, voegt toe: “Met de beslissing om Gode Wind 3 en Borkum Riffgrund 3 te bouwen, breiden we onze Duitse portefeuille uit tot zes offshore windparken en een totaal investeringsvolume sinds 2012 van ongeveer 7,5 miljard euro. Terwijl Borkum Riffgrund 3 het grootste windpark inDuitslandtot op heden zouden windparken op gigawattschaal de norm moeten zijn bij het plannen van toekomstige offshore windbouw. Grootschalige projecten zullen de sleutel zijn tot het veiligstellen van de volumes groene energie die nodig zijn om klimaatneutraliteit te bereiken inDuitsland tegen 2045, een inspanning waarvoor wind op zee de meest geschikte bron van hernieuwbare energie blijft.”

    De groeiende vraag van bedrijven naar langetermijnovereenkomsten voor de aankoop van stroom kan een aanvulling vormen op regelgevingsmechanismen zoals contracts for difference, die zowel voor ontwikkelaars als voor elektriciteitsklanten prijszekerheid op lange termijn creëren. Beide zijn cruciaal om te voldoen aan de toekomstige vraag naar groene stroom vanuit de industrie en de samenleving.

    Ørsted heeft CPPA's ondertekend op Borkum Riffgrund 3 voor een totaal van 786 MW met Covestro (100 MW), Amazon (350 MW), REWE Groep (100 MW), BASF (186 MW), en Google (50 MW) ter ondersteuning van de uiteindelijke investeringsbeslissing door het creëren van een grote mate van inkomstenzekerheid voor Borkum Riffgrund 3.

    Op 19 oktober van dit jaar, Glennmont Partnerswerd 50% aandeelhouder van Borkum Riffgrund 3. De overeenkomst met Glennmont werd onder bepaalde opschortende voorwaarden gesloten, waaronder de definitieve investeringsbeslissing van Ørsted. Nu het definitieve investeringsbesluit, de projectvergunning, de goedkeuring van de fusie en de goedkeuring van buitenlandse investeringen van kracht zijn, verwacht Ørsted de transactie uiterlijk in het eerste kwartaal van 2022 af te ronden.

    Feiten over Borkum Riffgrund 3 en Gode Wind 3

    Borkum Riffgrund 3 en Gode Wind 3 zullen een exportcapaciteit hebben van respectievelijk 900 MW en 242 MW en zullen in de Duitse Noordzee dicht bij de bestaande offshore windparken Borkum Riffgrund 1&2 en Gode Wind 1&2 van Ørsted.
    Gode ??Wind 3 zal naar verwachting in 2024 in gebruik worden genomen en Borkum Riffgrund 3 zal naar verwachting in 2025 in gebruik worden genomen.

    De stroom van beide projecten wordt opgewekt door: Siemens Gamesa offshore windturbines, elk met een vermogen van 11 MW en een rotordiameter van 200 meter.
    Op de Duitse offshore windveilingen in 2017 en 2018 kreeg Ørsted het recht om vijf offshore windprojecten te bouwen, tegenwoordig bekend onder de geconsolideerde namen Gode Wind 3 en Borkum Riffgrund 3.

    Met biedingen van EUR 0per MWh was Borkum Riffgrund 3 het eerste grootschalige offshore windpark ter wereld dat een nulbod kreeg. Dit werd mogelijk gemaakt door een aantal kostenfactoren, waaronder de installatie van de volgende generatie windturbinetechnologie, zeer goede locatieomstandigheden en hoge windsnelheden, en verwachte inkomstenstabiliserende CPPA's bij bedrijven.

    Gode ??Wind 3 krijgt een gewogen gemiddelde subsidie ??van EUR 81 per MWh.

    De informatie in deze aankondiging verandert niets aan de financiële vooruitzichten van Ørsted voor het boekjaar 2021 of het verwachte investeringsniveau dat voor 2021 is aangekondigd.

    Ørsted has signed a 12-year corporate power purchase agreement with Google, under which Google will offtake 50 MW of Ørsted’s planned 900 MW Borkum Riffgrund 3 Offshore Wind Farm in the German North Sea. The CPPA with Ørsted will contribute to Google’s commitment of operating all their data centres, cloud regions and campuses on 24/7 carbon free energy by 2030.

    Borkum Riffgrund 3 was the world’s first large-scale offshore wind farm to be awarded with a zero bid and is expected to go into full commercial operation in 2025. As the project was awarded without government subsidies, the CPPA with Google will contribute to providing revenue certainty for Ørsted and help mature Borkum Riffgrund 3 towards a final investment decision, which is expected by the end of 2021.

    Amazon, the multinational technology, e-commerce, cloud computing, and digital streaming company based in Seattle, Washington, and Ørsted announced two new corporate power purchase agreements totalling 116 MW of capacity across onshore and offshore wind. Specifically, Amazon will offtake the output of 100 MW from Ørsted's 900 MW Borkum Riffgrund 3 Offshore Wind Farm in Germany. This CPPA is in addition to the 250 MW CPPA signed in December 2020, meaning that Amazon will offtake a total of 350 MW from Borkum Riffgrund 3, once the offshore wind farm enters commercial operation, expected in 2025.

    Amazon and Ørsted have also agreed that Amazon will offtake the output of the 16 MW Ballykeel Onshore Wind Farm in Northern Ireland, which Ørsted expects to take final investment decision on later this year.

    Across technologies, Ørsted and Amazon have signed three CPPAs. Besides the updated CPPA on Borkum Riffgrund 3 and the CPPA on Ballykeel, Amazon is also offtaking the full capacity of the 253 MW Amazon Onshore Wind Farm Texas in Scurry County, Texas.

    Cargill and Vattenfall partner with Windpark Hanze in the Netherlands is expected to reduce CO2 emissions by approximately 350,000 metric tons a year, which is equivalent to providing electricity for more than 95,000 homes in the Netherlands per year once construction is complete. The onshore wind farm, consisting of 15 wind turbines, will be commissioned in the Flevoland province near the city of Dronten. It will have a total installed capacity of 90 megawatts and will go into full commercial operation in 2023. Windpark Hanze has recently achieved financial close and civil works have already commenced.

    Vattenfall will offtake the output of 78 megawatts from the planned onshore wind farm under a 15-year Power Purchase Agreement and Cargill will offtake 2.9 terawatthours from Vattenfall under a 10-year Corporate Power Purchase Agreement. As a result, the renewable energy generated from 13 of the wind farm’s wind turbines will power more than 90% of Cargill’s grid based electrical consumption in the Netherlands.
