This webinar starts from the basics of wind energy and wind turbine design, then looks at the important features of onshore and offshore wind farms and wind energy in grid systems.
Abstract: The presentation will start from the basics of wind energy and wind turbine design. It will then build on that foundation to look at the important features of onshore wind farms. And finally, it will look at the unique features of offshore wind farms, and wind energy in grid systems. It will include aspects of the wind itself, wind turbine design, permitting and environmental concerns, transmission interconnections and where we are going – how much wind power will we need in a net-zero electric world and the role of renewables and storage in electric grids.
