Ziel dieser Arbeit ist es, eine Lernkurve f{\"u}r Windenergie an Land zu bestimmen. Daf{\"u}r wurden Daten zu Stromgestehungskosten (LCOE) und Kosten f{\"u}r die Installation (COP) von Windenergieanlagen (WEA) im Zeitraum von 1983 bis einschließlich 2020 gesammelt, grafisch dargestellt und weitergehend ausgewertet. Die grafische Darstellung der Datenlage verdeutlicht die zeitliche Entwicklung der Technologie. Zur Beschreibung dieser Lernkurven wurden die Progress Ratio (PR) und Learning Rate (LR) in f{\"u}nf unterschiedlichen Modellen bestimmt. Anhand derer sich in Kombination mit der zuk{\"u}nftig installierten Leistung von WEA eine Prognose {\"u}ber zuk{\"u}nftige Kosten ableiten l{\"a}sst. Die ermittelten LR bewegen sich zwischen 13 \% und 28 \%, woraus sich LCOE im Jahr 2030 zwischen 44,03 US\$/MWh und 61 US\$/MWh ergeben.}, language = {de} } @article{Plascher2023, author = {Plascher, Gregor}, title = {Current systems and potential areas for tidal power plants - A review - Using the example of the United Kingdom}, series = {Educational Journal of Renewable Energy Short Reviews}, journal = {Educational Journal of Renewable Energy Short Reviews}, doi = {10.25974/ren_rev_2023_03}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:836-opus-172622}, pages = {16 -- 20}, year = {2023}, abstract = {This review is about where and which tidal power systems are currently deployed. It starts with an insight into the variety of different tidal power systems. With the help of a list from the European Marine Energy Center about currently used systems for tidal power plants, it quickly becomes apparent that two systems stand out. These are the vertical and horizontal turbines. The latter are particularly common, as they are used for both tidal stream and tidal range power plants. Determining the regions with high potential for tidal power is not always easy due to the many influencing factors. Influencing factors are, for example form and conditions of the seabed, topographical features of the coast or currents in the sea [1]. Therefore, each region must be considered separately. n this paper the focus is on the UK, the literature shows that the coastal regions around the UK provide about 50 TWh/year of the European tidal power potential. This is due to the location between the oceans and the geological conditions, which act as a channel for the tides. The two areas with high potential where planning and construction of tidal power plants is currently underway are in the north of Scotland and in the southwest of England in the Bristol Channel.}, language = {en} } @article{Sommer2023, author = {Sommer, Philipp}, title = {Open-Power System Modelling - A Review of Existing Methods and Models}, series = {Educational Journal of Renewable Energy Short Reviews}, journal = {Educational Journal of Renewable Energy Short Reviews}, doi = {10.25974/ren_rev_2023_04}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:836-opus-172636}, pages = {21 -- 26}, year = {2023}, abstract = {This review paper presents a short overview of current power system modelling tools especially used for analysing energy and electricity systems for the supply and demand sector.

The problems for the construction of an underground pumped storage power plant are further listed. These are geological, environmental and economic problems as well as a low acceptance by the population. The geological problems are concerns about leaching of minerals and heavy metals as well as the statics of the cavities. Mining companies in Germany are obligated to renaturalize the landscape areas again, which could be realised by a lake. Furthermore, care must be taken to ensure that the mine water does not come into contact with the groundwater. According to a survey by RISP on the subsequent use of the mine areas for an underground pumped storage power plant, the acceptance of the population is over 70 percent. The economic consideration concludes that the arbitrage profit for a difference between off-peak and peak of 10 €/MWh is about 2.7 M€/a and for 100 €/MWh about 27.3 M€/a. With investment costs of about 630 M€, despite the assumption of 100 €/MWh, more than 20 years are needed for an underground pumped storage power plant to be amortized. The acceptance could be increased by creating a lake as a recreation area as well as being used as an upper storage reservoir. Thus, the cost of renaturation decrease when combined with the creation of the storage basin. The problem of ground conditions can be solved by creating new cavities by means of tunnel boring at an inclination. For static safety as well as against leaching of minerals and heavy metals, the cavity walls can be sealed with reinforced concrete. The technology of underground pumped storage power plants can be used for better utilisation of renewable energies. This is especially in flat and densely populated regions a possibility to store energy, because the main part of the power plant is underground.}, language = {en} }
