DOE’s Research Goals – Enhance the penetration of renewable energy while maintaining grid reliability,

security and resiliency • Dr. Danielson’s goal is 80% renewable penetration by 2050

– Integrate energy storage systems, balancing power and energy – Optimize integration of diverse energy resources

• Dr. Danielson’s goal is to increase clean energy sources – Improve utilization of delivery existing infrastructure – Advance electric vehicle penetration

O e e Status

Overview/Status/

• Class 3 wind site identified: commercially viable • At area #6, with low wind turbine model, gross capacity factor

estimated between 38-40%. • Many locations around INL have been assessed to characterize the

i d d b t i d it id tifi d wind resources, and best wind sites identified. • Possible alternatives identified for electrical interconnection • No anticipated fatal flaws

– Biological survey—mitigation looks promising – Cultural survey—mitigation looks promising

• Power line connection design will not impact safety systemg p y y

Project Description • Total wind farm nameplate capacity is planned at 20MW

P t ti l f l j t i– Potential for larger project size – This will be driven by project economics and turbine availability at time of

contract award • Total number of turbines combined from all areas will range between 8-Total number of turbines combined from all areas will range between 8

13 turbines – Depending on the nameplate size of the wind turbine chosen for the

project Wi d t bi l t i ill b t 1 5 3 0MW – Wind turbine nameplate size will range between 1.5-3.0MW.

– Wind turbine hub height will be between 80-100 meters depending on turbine chosen

– Wind turbine rotor diameters will likely be between 82-117 meters Wind turbine rotor diameters will likely be between 82 117 meters depending on turbine chosen

Super Lab Capabilities • Super Lab concept will pave the way for research testing of models

such as the Renewable Energy and SuperGrid Integration project such as the Renewable Energy and SuperGrid Integration project
