Ampair

Ampair is featuring the second generation Ampair HeliPod HP1000 remote site renewable energy generator. This product is new and is being demonstrated on the Ampair stand. 

The system is “as far as we can see the only, off-the-shelf remote site renewable energy generator in existence - all other systems are typically custom built” they say; explaining that: “The HeliPod really is the renewable energy equivalent of buying a small petrol generator and plugging your equipment into it. It is plug and play. The benefit of course is that this system can run potentially for 5 years completely autonomously as compared to a propane, diesel or petrol generator that must be refuelled at regular intervals, with the added cost of getting to site to do so.” 

The HeliPod is of use for wind measurement campaigns using LIDAR, Met Masts, Heated Anemometers, disaster relief, military, agricultural, scientific, rural electrification virtually anyone who would buy a small petrol or diesel generator to normally provide energy. 

As a result of All-Energy 2011, Ampair was approached by to companies to supply offshore renewable hybrid power systems with peak energy outputs of 1.5kW - Ampair delivered these projects and is now working on ten other offshore projects as a result of the experience gained. “All-Energy works for us!” they say.

Atmos Consulting


Atmos Consulting will be launching its newly developed GIS data modelling tools during All-Energy. Of particular interest is their brand new Cumulative Visibility Modelling (CVM) Tool. The CVM tool enables automated mapping of the intensity of cumulative onshore wind farm visibility. The first of its kind, this tool will be an essential aid to onshore wind development going forward.

As the onshore wind energy sector matures, there is increasing pressure on wind energy developers to illustrate the cumulative visual impact of their applications in relation to other schemes in their planning applications. The quantity and distribution of wind farms at various stages in the planning process across Scotland often leads to cumbersome figure sets which are difficult to interpret for planning authorities, statutory consultees and the general public. The new SNH guidance recognises the complexity inherent in cumulative assessment and stresses that the focus should be on those wind farms with the potential for significant cumulative impacts which are likely to influence decision making. The tool developed by Atmos, which provides a visual representation of the magnitude or intensity of cumulative impact, is designed to identify the likely level of additional change. The cumulative intensity mapping will be a useful tool for developers and for planning authorities in their analysis , but will not be a substitute for a detailed cumulative Landscape and Visual Impact Assessment by an experienced landscape architect.

The tool has been developed in collaboration with a number of leading landscape architects and has also involved consultation with Scottish Natural Heritage. It is of particular interest to onshore wind developers, planning authorities and decision makers.

They will also be showing their Bird Data Management (BDM) System for onshore wind development. This tool enables automated management of bird data for wind development. The volume of data collection and storage required for birds for wind farm development is substantial. From species present in different areas, to flight range and flight paths, this tool provides access to all available data. This is of interest to onshore and offshore wind farm developers.

Atmos Consulting has experienced significant growth over the past 12 months, with staff numbers increasing by 40% over the past two years. This has resulted in the expansion of three of its offices in Inverness, Edinburgh and Stanhope, and a significant broadening of its available consultancy services and client base. Recently, Atmos has achieved planning success on Shiels Wind Farm in Aberdeenshire, Viaton industrial wind turbine in Derbyshire, continues to work closely with PNE Wind UK Ltd on their Forestry Commission Scotland Wind Opportunity, and is currently working with a number of communities around the UK including Unity Wind in Norfolk, Coigach in the north west of Scotland, Huntly in North east Scotland as well as Castlemilk and Carmunnock Community Wind Trust.

Hydro Group plc


Hydro Group plc will be featuring The Hydro Renewable Connector (HRC) a 12 kV electrical and optical dry mate subsea connector, that has been designed to connect large subsea power cables to wave and tidal energy convertors (WECs & TECs). The connectors are used to join static armoured subsea power cables to dynamic subsea umbilical cable. Various types of cable can be accommodated within the geometry of the connector. Each connector design is tailored to suit the requirements of the subsea cables which contain fibre-optic and instrumentation connections as well as 3 to 4 power connections

The cabling for offshore power generation involves a multitude of connections to be made to each generating device. These cables can be run to shore individually or connected to a subsea hub. A single, higher power cable can then be run to shore for termination into an onshore grid. Connecting the generating devices to the subsea cabling infrastructure is also problematic. This can be carried out 1) on-ship by cable splicing, this is time consuming and very expensive or 2) using ‘dry-mate’ connectors on ship. Our HRC allows installation times on the barge to be reduced from weeks to days or possibly even hours!

Their featured exhibit is used to connect large subsea power cables to wave and tidal energy convertors (WECs & TECs). Four units of our Hydro Renewable Connectors (HRC) are installed to the Wave Hub, deployed in the seabed and awaiting connection to WECs & TECs

The Hydro Group is currently working on the design and development of a 33 kV wet mate connector.

ICEE Managed Services 

ICEE is a manufacturer of enclosures, a supplier of fabrications/cutting services and a supplier of communications services to various industries including the highways, rail and telecommunications sectors. 
 
ICEE has gained many years’ experience in constructing enclosures that can be built from specification, a modified existing design or made completely bespoke. This allows ICEE to work with you to provide the correct solution to your problem. One such case study called for ICEE to produce an enclosure with environmental power back up systems (fuel cell, solar panel & wind turbine) as a power grid supply was not available. There was nothing off the shelf available in the market; that suited the customer’s application so ICEE worked with them to provide exactly what was needed for the situation. This demonstrates not only flexibility but the innovation from ICEE when working with customers.
 
This year ICEE will be showing their versatility by not only exhibiting enclosures but other profiled and fabricated items. This will include parts cut from various materials by their Waterjet cutting machine and the new Fibre Laser cutting machine. This state of the art technology can be used on its own - as a subcontract service, or as part of our complete enclosure manufacture offering. 
 
The waterjet is capable of cutting any material up to 230mm thick but is especially useful when it comes to cutting material which is non-standard in its properties (including composites). The fibre laser technology is much faster than previous CO2 lasers which were used in the past, thus enabling ICEE to improve the efficiency of their production. 
 
ICEEs experience within the telecommunications industry can also be applied to any other sector that has a communications network infrastructure. ICEE has specially trained and experienced engineers, who can install, commission, migrate, decommission and provide maintenance services of equipment. 
 
In addition to this ICEE can also carry out electrical/equipment pre-staging in a workshop environment and carry out FATS and SATS as required. ICEE can also offer a site auditing/surveying service prior to undertaking any work so that we can understand what is required.   All of the services mentioned can be used as a standalone solution or they can be combined to provide a full turnkey offering.

MacArtney

 
MacArtney will be introducing their newest development within renewable energy, the 11kV wet mate connector. This is an entirely new type of medium voltage wet mate connector designed especially for offshore renewable energy needs.
 
This new 11kV wet mate connector makes interconnection and connecting dynamic cables from offshore renewable energy converters to export cables faster and easier. Up to now, disconnecting or connecting cable terminations offshore has been a time-consuming and consequently expensive business and required bringing up cables on deck. Funded by ETI, MacArtney has developed, produced and tested the new 11kV connector solution. MacArtney’s wet mate connector eliminates the need to bring the cable to the surface for mating and de-mating, shortens the time needed for connection and makes it possible to operate in waters with limited time windows.
 
Cables ends are terminated to an 11 kV connector pair before deployment and mechanically connected offshore. The mechanical connection of the two halves takes less than an hour. This mechanical connection also makes it possible to connect and disconnect cables time and time again. The termination can also be pre mounted onto cable ends for installation in two stages.
 
The MacArtney 11kV wet mate connector system is fully tested and EN/CE/IEC 60502-4 compliant and designed to meet the needs of the marine renewable industry and requirements from grid owners and utilities.
 
The wet mate connector eliminates the need to bring cables to the surface by wet mating and de-mating cable infrastructure, wave energy converters (WECs), tidal energy converters (TECs) and floating wind turbines for utility companies, site developers and Renewable Energy device manufacturers.
 
The stand will be manned by experts and engineers from the MacArtney Group who will be available every day for advice and information.

Nortek


Nortek has recently launched a Scour Monitor for offshore wind farms, jack-up rigs, jetty walls and underwater pier foundations. The instrument comprises four downward looking narrow acoustic beams, which continuously monitor the seabed profile at the base of the structure. User selectable time series datasets are collected and recorded internally and/or can be output in real-time, using RS 232 or RS 422 formats.

Changes in seabed levels adjacent to the structure are measured and real-time data can be relayed back from the field. Scour and subsequent refill events, which might happen during storm periods, can thus be identified and fully quantified. The Nortek Scour Monitor provides invaluable information for modellers or project operators, trying to assess whether scour protection is required.

The instruments have been designed, with the intention that they may be deployed in groups, thus enabling a complete assessment to be made of the overall wind farm sediment movement patterns. Nortek is also working on a unique deployment system, which should allow diver-less deployments to be carried out. 

Scour is potentially a big problem for the wind farm people and although sonars give beautiful pictures, they are only snap shots taken between events. There is nothing else which offer a time  series during all weathers. Nothing else which can be used to monitor large numbers of turbines in real-time.

Their exhibit is of interest to wind farm operators, jack up rig owners and bridge engineers.

Other exhibits will include single beam profiler for monitoring turbulence in front of and behind tidal turbines in strong flows.

As the result of a collaborative study with Edinburgh University, Nortek has developed a single beam profiler for the measurement of turbulent flow affecting underwater turbines.

When coupled with computer controlled pan and tilt mechanisms, groups of Nortek single beam profilers, can be focused on target points, both in front of and behind the turbine.  By synchronising the firing sequence of the profilers, 3D current measurements can be obtained at these focus points, with sampling rates of up to 2Hz.

The same single beam profilers can also be fitted to the nose cone of any turbine, providing a continuous measurement of incoming current flow.

This new approach, to a persistent problem with tidal turbines, is being displayed by Nortek on stand L69.

REpower UK


REpower UK
will focus on several wind turbines including the M100, 3.4M and 3.2M for onshore use; and their groundbreaking 6M for offshore use.
 
M100: The tried-and-tested MM range now features a new wind power system model for low-wind locations: the MM100. Based on the concept of its predecessors, the MM82 and MM92, it combines the experience and expertise they have gained through the installation and operation of more than 2,000 of these wind power systems. MM100 will maximise yield at low wind speed sites. With a swept rotor area of 7,854 m2, the REpower MM100 was optimized specifically for use in low-wind applications, and comes with hub heights ranging from 75 to 100 meters.

With high yields and great reliability, the 3.XM series is an evolution of the MM series with its proven track record but key areas have been redesigned to further maximise performance

3.4M:  To make the REpower 3.4M104 suitable for high-wind sites they offer this onshore wind power plant with a hub heights of 80, 93 (suitable for forested sites) and up to 100 meters and 128 meters. Even complex terrain, including forested sites, can be exploited for optimal yields.

3.2M: The onshore wind turbine 3.2M114 is an extension of their powerful and technologically advanced 3.XM series. The 3.2 megawatt wind power plant has been optimized for low-medium wind locations. Here, its rotor surface of more than 10.000 m2 helps to increase the energy yield by up to 10 percent compared to the REpower 3.4M104.
 
It is their aim to provide customers with the optimal wind power plant for every location. For this reason the 3.2M114 is offered in different variations, just like its precursor: as a steel tower with a hub height of 93 meters or as a hybrid tower with a height ranging from 123 to 143 meters. With these heights, the hybrid tower of the wind power plant clears natural obstacles, providing optimal yields even on difficult terrain.
 
For offshore, they are also promoting the Thornton Bank project as well as the 6M wind turbine machines. Their engineers have used the proven 5M wind turbine as a basis for designing the 6M offshore model – and have thus developed a wind turbine with a nominal power of 6.15 megawatts and a rotor diameter of 126 meters that ranks among the most powerful offshore wind power plants in the world.
 
The REpower 6M is not only groundbreaking in terms of reliability and maintenance. An advanced cooling system for the generator enables the offshore wind power plant to deliver a continuous capacity of 6 megawatts. The refined electrical system guarantees a long lifespan and highest yields at minimal operating costs.
 
Other exhibits will include:  MM82 and MM92, as well as ISP packages – of interest to, and use by developers, utilities and investors.
