Emerson and Vayu form alliance to optimize wind energy farms with machine learning

Emerson has formed an alliance with Vayu, a Ystrategies Corp company, to provide automation technology solutions for wind farm energy optimization in the Americas, Caribbean and Europe. The three-year collaboration combines the advanced power applications and networking capabilities of Emerson’s Ovation™ automation platform with Vayu’s cloud-computing wind energy optimization technology. Using this approach, Vayu has identified more than $500 million in revenue opportunities from just a fraction of the approximately 450 wind farms in the United States.

Mr Bob Yeager, president of Emerson’s power and water business said that “Combining the respective strengths of Emerson and Vayu creates a first-of-its-kind, intelligent solution for wind farm optimization. This initiative will help wind energy producers maximize their aggregate power output, achieve their financial objectives and deliver more clean power to their communities.”

The wind power market continues to grow: 53.9 gigawatts were added in 2018, bringing the overall capacity of all wind turbines installed worldwide to 600 gigawatts, according to the World Wind Energy Association. The United State the second largest wind power market added 7.6 gigawatts of capacity last year.

Beyond the additional revenue from megawatt production, the advanced solution from Vayu and Emerson can also help US wind farm owners take advantage of federal production tax credits awarded for increasing electricity output of existing wind turbines.

“Instead of embarking on full-scale repowering projects that can cost millions, wind farm owners can make a small investment in this integrated solution to boost power production and qualify for the tax credit,” said Vayu CEO Jim Kiles.

In traditional wind farms, each turbine is individually optimized. Each creates its own turbulence, or wake, which prevents downwind turbines from receiving full energy from the wind stream, significantly reducing wind energy production. Vayu estimates two-thirds of U.S. wind farms experience reduced capacity due to wind wake. Emerson and Vayu’s solution leverages key data and machine learning to enable turbines to work cooperatively, adjusting the side-to-side movement of each turbine based on wind speed, wind direction and other parameters to extract the optimum energy from wind.

Emerson’s Ovation compact controller will communicate data from each turbine’s wind sensor to the Vayu system every 1-2 seconds—much faster than the 10 minutes typically required to perform this function when using traditional equipment. This near-real-time data enables a more accurate calculation of the optimum setting for each turbine.

Ovation compact control technology was designed specifically for renewables and other highly distributed energy applications and can easily interface with any turbine controller regardless of manufacturer eliminating the significant time and expense associated with removing and replacing existing turbine controls.

Massachusetts calls to double state plan for offshore wind power

The Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources has released its report on pursuing an additional 1,600 MW of offshore wind power, doubling the state’s wind commitment. In 2018, Governor Charlie Baker signed into law An Act to Advance Clean Energy, Chapter 227 of the Acts of 2018, which required DOER to study the necessity, benefits, and costs of requiring the Electric Distributions Companies to conduct additional solicitations and procurements for offshore wind. The study projected that an additional procurement for 1,600 MW of offshore wind could save Massachusetts ratepayers between USD670 million and USD 1.27 billion over the 20-year life of a contract.

The legislation also directed DOER to evaluate the previous 1,600 MW solicitation under Section 83C and make recommendations for any improvements.

Based on its recent findings, DOER recommends and will require the Massachusetts EDCs to proceed with the 1,600 MW of additional offshore wind generation solicitations. The study recommends that the additional solicitations take place in 2022 and 2024. The two intervals would allow for more cost-effective technology improvements over time while providing a steady pipeline of economic opportunities for the offshore supply chain.

Ms Liz Burdock, CEO and President of the Business Network for Offshore Wind that “We thank Massachusetts DOER Commissioner Judith Judson for releasing the report calling for an additional 1600 MW of offshore wind power starting in 2022, which will double the state’s commitment to 3200 MW.”

The DOER report projects that the second 1600 MW procurement could save state ratepayers between USD 670 million and 1.27 billion over the 20-year life of the contract, added Burdock.

She added that “In addition, we support the department’s strategy of a staggered schedule of solicitations for this second authorization, like what New Jersey is doing with pre-scheduled RFPs in 2020 and 2022. This is the type of far-sighted planning that will allow Massachusetts to maintain its status as a national leader in the US offshore wind industry.”

Brazil Regulator Blocks Sale Of Wind Complex By Renova To AES Tiete - Report

Reuters reported that Brazil’s power sector regulator ANEEL rejected the proposed transfer of wind power complex Alto Sertao III from Renova Energia SA to AES Tietê, a 1.34-billion real (USD 346.73 million) deal closed in April. In a meeting of its board, ANEEL directors said the companies failed to show possible gains for the consumer or guarantees for the conclusion of the project.

Renova and AES Tietê were also seeking from ANEEL suspension of some fines related to delays in the complex’s completion.

In a securities filing, Renova Energia said the regulator’s decision only applies to windmills that already had future contracts to sell the energy. Windmills that did not have this contract could still be sold, Renova said.

AES Tietê, which is part of US energy firm AES Corp, said that the 350 million reais phase A of the project, with an installed capacity of 438 MW, was not at risk from the regulator’s decision.

Similarly, both companies said that an option to buy up to 1.1 GW of wind projects under development by AES Tietê, for up to 76 million reais, was not affected by the ruling.

AES Tietê said that “In light of this decision, (AES Tietê) will reassess its interest in the acquisition of Phase B of this project. Phase A and the pipeline were not subject to Aneel’s decision and therefore follow their normal course within the schedule for the completion of the transaction.”
