Yield assessment wind farm Hollandse Kust Noord. Scoping analysis for three different wind turbines
report
RVO assigned ECN part of TNO to calculate the potential energy yield (P501) for the wind farm zone Hollandse Kust Noord (HKN) Wind Farm Site V that will be tendered in 2019. The yield is determined for 3 different wind turbine types, using wind conditions for HKN as can be found on the RVO website. The wind turbine models are based on state of the art design analysis of turbines that are assumed to be available on the market at the time of installation of the wind farms at HKN in 2023.
The wind turbine characteristics are based on nominal power and rotor diameters that have been agreed on with RVO. The power and thrust curves of the wind turbines, which are required for the wind farm yield analysis, have been calculated with the ECN rotor design tool BOT.
A wind turbine lay-out has been designed by ECN for each of the three wind turbine models. The lay-outs are aiming for optimal spacing of the turbines with respect to yield, taking into account the restrictions that the installed capacity is maximized at 760 MW and that the wind turbines should be completely inside the boundary of the site (i.e. it is not allowed that rotor blades cross the site boundary
