Claudia is introducing Muireann Lynch:
Optimal interconnection and
renewable targets in North-West Europe
Interconnection it is really important to increase the capacity factors and diversify supply and increase the renewable penetration and arbitrage opportunities
from an EU prospective we can increase investment in less-favourable areas
Research Questions:
Where
should we build interconnection?
How
do renewable targets change the story?
How
to get best value from assets?
We set Objective function and constraints. Assume new interconnection have a capacity of 1 GW.
Iterative Approach to find the optimal connection.
We run different Scanarios to find the optimal interconnection
Results:
Conclusion
Interconnection has value primarily as facilitator of variable renewables.
Design of targets has an impact on the value of interconnection – and indeed renewables
Amy O’Mahoney: The Merit Order Effect of Wind
This
paper considers the cost savings arising from wind generation through the meritorder effect in gross pool electricity markets
She is explain the Merit Order Effect on the electricity Market. The Case Study is Ireland.
The aim is quantify the cost savings arising from wind generation through the merit order effect in gross pool electricity markets
Results:
◦Estimated
savings €141
million
◦Total
market dispatch €1,484 million
◦Without
wind, prices would have been 12%
higher
