TWENTIES
Large–scale integration of wind power
Tuesday, 15 March
11:00 - 13:00
Room 1101A, Brussels Expo

Workshop Overview
TWENTIES, an EU-funded project, uses six demonstrations to examine barriers to accommodating the amount of wind energy required to reach the EU’s 2020 targets. Demonstrations address:
- system services (voltage and frequency) provided by wind farms;
- the feasibility of Virtual Power Plants combining wind farm operations and flexible generation and loads;
- increased grid flexibility (including power flow control devices and dynamic line rating);
- configurations and critical components for secure off-shore meshed networks;
- strategies for balancing large off-shore shut downs under stormy conditions;
- streamlined permitting processes of off-shore wind farms;
This event updated participants on the interim results of each demonstration.
