10th International Workshop on Large-Scale Integration of Wind Power into Power Systems as well as on Transmission Networks for Offshore Wind Power Plants

Langen/Aarhus - Maintaining security of energy supply is a Europe-wide task. This is particular true with increasing share of renewable energy such as wind and PV in the European power system. Considering national plans, such as the German phase out of nuclear power, long-term European power system planning is becoming more and more important.

With its 10th edition, the Wind Integration Workshop is celebrating a jubilee this year. The first edition of the workshop was held 11 ½ years ago at the Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden in March 2000.

The focus of the first edition of the workshop was on HVDC transmission technology, including HVDC transmission networks. Over the past years the key topics changed continuously, reflecting the shifting focuses in the area of wind integration, for instance modelling issues, national grid integration experience, market issues as well as grid code issues became key topics of the workshop. This way, the workshop developed into a renowned international platform for discussing the subject of grid integration of wind power into the existing power systems. This year, HVDC transmission solutions have even emerged again as one of the key topics of the workshop.

The general purpose of this workshop, however, has not changed over the past years: It is to get researchers, economists and practicing engineers from different fields relating to wind power and transmission systems to exchange their knowledge and discuss their experience in the area of large-scale integration of wind power into power systems and transmission networks for offshore wind farms. The emphasis of this workshop is again on both theoretical discussion and practical applications.

The 10th Wind Integration Workshop forms the core of a whole Renewable Energy Week this year in Aarhus, Denmark with a number of related events such as Tutorials for the Solar Integration Workshop (October 23, 2011) and Tutorials on Wind Turbine Modelling (October 24, 2011), the 1st Workshop on the Integration of Solar Power into Power Systems (October 24, 2011), the Fifth Workshop on Best Practice in the Use of Short-term Forecasting of Wind Power (October 24th, 2011), the dedicated TSO-Energinet.dk-day (October 27, 2011) and two different field trips (October 27 and 28, 2011).
