WINDSPEED facts:
Spatial deployment of offshore wind energy in Europe
Client: DG TREN/EACI (Intelligent Energy for Europe Programme)
Budget: Euro 1.4 mill.
Duration: September 2008 – February 2011
Partners: 9
European Offshore Wind Conference 2009 – Stockholm, 14 September 2009
• Develop a Roadmap for large scale offshore wind deployment in the Central and Southern North Sea basin (BE, DE, DK, NL, NO, UK) up to 2030
• Develop a GIS-based Decision Support System (DSS) tool, allowing for spatial representation of wind energy potentials in relation to non-wind sea functions and environmental aspect
• Establish inventories (i) current and future sea use functions, (ii) location specific wind potential and wind energy costs, (iii) current grid infrastructure and future grid plans
• Identify interactions between offshore wind energy and non-wind sea functions, along with a methodology to quantify these interactions
• Identify barriers and potential surplus conditions in the grid
• Carry out scenario analysis of spatial opportunities for offshore wind energy deployment
WINDSPEED objectives
European Offshore Wind Conference 2009 – Stockholm, 14 September 2009
• Offshore wind energy deployment is triggering a need for maritime spatial planning
• Wind energy (onshore and offshore) crucial in terms of achieving 2020 RES targets
• Current national targets/ambitions and planning/zoning for offshore wind deployment in MS not sufficient, what additional space is needed and where
• Blueprint for a North Sea offshore grid is in the pipeline, identifying suitable areas for offshore wind energy deployment and planning offshore grid infrastructure go hand-in-hand
• Today, nationally fragmented approach to offshore wind energy development BUT what’s really needed is a trans-national approach
WINDSPEED motivation
