Download or read book Renewable Energy Forecasting written by Georges Kariniotakis and published by Woodhead Publishing. This book was released on 2017-09-29 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Renewable Energy Forecasting: From Models to Applications provides an overview of the state-of-the-art of renewable energy forecasting technology and its applications. After an introduction to the principles of meteorology and renewable energy generation, groups of chapters address forecasting models, very short-term forecasting, forecasting of extremes, and longer term forecasting. The final part of the book focuses on important applications of forecasting for power system management and in energy markets. Due to shrinking fossil fuel reserves and concerns about climate change, renewable energy holds an increasing share of the energy mix. Solar, wind, wave, and hydro energy are dependent on highly variable weather conditions, so their increased penetration will lead to strong fluctuations in the power injected into the electricity grid, which needs to be managed. Reliable, high quality forecasts of renewable power generation are therefore essential for the smooth integration of large amounts of solar, wind, wave, and hydropower into the grid as well as for the profitability and effectiveness of such renewable energy projects. Offers comprehensive coverage of wind, solar, wave, and hydropower forecasting in one convenient volume Addresses a topic that is growing in importance, given the increasing penetration of renewable energy in many countries Reviews state-of-the-science techniques for renewable energy forecasting Contains chapters on operational applications

Download or read book Minute scale Power Forecasts of Offshore Wind Farms Based on Long range Lidar Measurements and Turbine Operational Data written by Frauke Theresa Theuer and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The volatility of wind power feed-in threatens system security. Statistical minute-scale power forecasts are used to support grid balancing but fail during ramp events. The aim of the thesis was the development of probabilistic minute-scale power forecasts for offshore wind farms based on lidar measurements and turbine operational data as a physical-based alternative. Firstly, a method based on dual-Doppler radar data was extended to the needs of single long-range lidar scans. Next, uncertainty related to wind speed height extrapolation and atmospheric stability was characterized. The forecast availability and skill for wake-impacted turbines were enhanced by combing lidar and operational data. Finally, the forecasts of wind turbines were aggregated to a probabilistic wind farm power forecast using copulas. Our work proved the potential of observer-based forecasts and gave valuable insight into the dependence of forecast skill on atmospheric conditions and the measurement set-up.
