From October 26th to 28th, 2006, Delft University of Technology will host an International Workshop on Large-Scale Integration of Wind Power and Transmission Networks for Offshore Wind Farms organised by the German energy consulting company Energynautics in cooperation with the Technical University Delft, Netherlands, and the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), Stockholm, Sweden.
The sixth edition of this workshop again focuses primarily on the technical aspects of the large-scale integration of wind power and transmission networks for offshore wind farms. The workshop has developed into the premier workshop in its field in Europe, a regular forum to exchange knowledge and ideas and share experiences. Previous venues were Stockholm (Sweden), Billund (Denmark) and Glasgow (Scotland), host of the 5th workshop in April 2005 with 180 participants from 18 countries and 5 continents. This year’s workshop includes a field trip to the 108 MW Egmond aan Zee offshore wind farm that is currently nearing completion. On this special trip, participants will be able to see the latest offshore wind power technology.
