The purpose of this study is to evaluate various means of wind power turbines installation in the Korean west-south wind farm (Test bed 100 MW, Demonstrate site 400 MW). We presented the marine environment of the southwest offshore wind farm in order to decide the appropriate installation vessel to be used in this site. The various vessels would be WTIV (Wind turbine installation vessel), jack-up barge, or floating crane ${\cdots}$ etc. We analyzed the installation cost of offshore wind turbine and the transportation duration for each vessel. The analysis results showed the most suitable installation means for offshore wind turbine in the Korean west-south wind farm.

This paper introduces two on-going projects for DC high temperature superconducting (HTS) cable systems in South Korea. This study proposes the application of DC HTS cable systems to enhance power transfer limits of a grid-connected offshore wind farm. In order to develop the superconducting DC transmission system model based on HTS power cables, the maximum transfer limits from offshore wind farm are estimated and the system marginal price (SMP) calculated through a Two-Step Power Transfer (TSPT) model based on PV analysis and DC-optimal power flow. The proposed TSPT model will be applied to 2022 KEPCO systems with offshore wind farms.

This paper presents short-term wind farm power forecasting method using multivariate analysis and time series. Based on factor analysis, the proposed method makes new independent variables which newly composed by raw independent variables such as wind speed, ramp rate, wind power. Newly created variables are used in the time series model for forecasting wind farm power. To demonstrate the improved accuracy, the proposed method is compared with persistence model commonly used as reference in wind power forecasting using data from Jeju Island. The results of case studies are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed forecasting method.

The cross-section area of cable in the Offshore Wind Farm (OWF) is smaller than that in the onshore wind farm. Because the power loss in OWF is large relatively, the power loss is a key element for the economic evaluation of OWF design. The availability of wind turbine in OWF and the size of OWF are larger than those of onshore wind farm. If the economic evaluation of OWF ignores the availability of wind turbines, the power loss cost of OWF is overpriced. Since there are so many wind turbines, also, the calculation of power loss should be more accurate. In this paper, a method to calculate power loss is proposed for the design of big and complex inner-grid in OWF. The 99.5MW OWF is used for case study to see what effect the proposed method have on the power loss cost.

Owing to the variability of large-scaled wind power system, the development of wind farm management technologies and related compensation methods have been receiving attention. To provide an accurate and reliable output power, certain wind farm adopts a specified management system including a wind prediction model and grid expectation solutions for considering grid condition. Those technologies are focused on improving the reliability and stability issues of wind farms, which can affect not only nearby system devices but also a voltage condition of utility grid. Therefore, to adapt the develop management system, an expectation process about voltage condition of Point of Common Coupling should be integrated in operating system for responding system requirements in real-time basis. This paper introduce a grid imposing method for a real-time based wind farm management system. The expected power can be transferred to the power flow section and the required quantity about reactive power can be calculated through the proposed system. For the verification process, the gauss-seidel method is introduced in the Matlab/Simulink for analysing power flow condition. The entire simulation process was designed to interwork with PSCAD for verifying real power system condition.

The global and domestic market for offshore wind farm is expected to grow fast, and the design and installation of substructure and foundation is getting more important. As for the offshore wind farms located in the shallow(depth < 20m) water, the construction and installation of the substructure and foundation makes up about 1/4 ~1/3 of the offshore wind farm construction cost, and the portion is expected to increase because the turbine capacity is increasing from 2 ~ 3MW to 5MW or larger and the water depth of wind farms is also increasing over 30m. As a foundation for offshore wind turbine, the suction caisson foundation is being considered to be a highly competitive alternative to the conventional monopile or gravity based structure, because it has features suitable for the offshore construction such as quick installation, no heavy equipment for penetration and no hammering noise for driving. In order to study the installation behaviour of the suction caisson, laboratory tests were performed with sand. The pore water pressure and displacement were measured to analyze the suction pressure during penetration, the penetration speed and the amount of heaving.

지구 온난화에 대처하는 일환으로 신재생에너지 가운데 세계 각국은 해상풍력단지 개발에 투자를 집중하고 있다. 그러나 해상풍력단지 개발은 해상에서의 구조물 운송, 설치 등의 해상작업이 요구됨에 따라 투자비용이 육상풍력단지 보다 높은 단점이 있다. 특히 해상기상 여건으로 인한 설치기간 지연은 해상풍력단지 운영의 경제성에도 영향을 끼치는 요소이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 국내 해상의 기상여건을 고려하여 해상풍력단지 조성의 최적 일정계획을 거시적 측면에서 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 수리적 모델을 개발하였고, 이를 이용하여 국내 서남해안 2.5GW 해상풍력단지 조성사업에 적용하였다. 해상 기상여건은 기상청의 자료를 활용하였고, 모델에 사용된 입력 자료는 해외의 선행 사례를 바탕으로 현실성을 최대한 반영하고자 하였다. 그 결과 해상풍력터빈 35기를 설치하는데 6개월이 소요되는 것으로 분석되었다. 특히 겨울을 피하여 작업하는 것이 비용을 최소화할 수 있는 것으로 분석되었다.

The wind power generation is an eco-friendly clean energy that produces almost zero $CO_2$ emission, and has a good economic feasibility. As for the location, the installation of large turbines and construction of large-scale wind farm is easier on the offshore than on the land. In Korea, it is inevitable to generate offshore wind power through the offshore wind farm, and the radio interference of larger wind power generators and offshore wind power farm to broadcasting, communication and radars is becoming a core issue for constructing the offshore wind farm. In this study, the wind power generation status and rotor blade technology trend were presented, along with the technical trend of radar radio interference reduction relating to construction of the offshore wind farm.

상업용으로 계통에 연계되어 운전되는 대부분의 풍력발전기는 유도발전기가 주로 사용되고 있으며 동기발전기와 다른 양상을 보이고 있어 계통에서의 사고발생 후 정상상태로 복귀할 수 있는 최대의 시간(임계 제거시간)을 이용하여 과도상태를 해석하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 풍력 발전시스템이 연계된 계통에 대해 임계 제거시간에 미치는 요인을 분석하였으며 계통해석 프로그램인 Digsilent Power Factory를 이용하였다. 임계 제거시간에 미치는 요인으로는 연계되는 계통의 단락용량(단락전류). 풍력발전 용량, 풍력발전기 역률, 풍력 발전시스템과 연계되는 계통사이의 전용선 길이, 부하 용량이나 역률 등이 있으며 이들의 변화에 대한 임계 제거시간의 영향을 분석하였다.
