Economical effectiveness of wind energy systems. Calculation model for the determination of the effectiveness under variable starting points. Economische rentabiliteit windenergiesystemen. Rekenmodel voor de rentabiliteitsbepaling onder varierende uitgangspunten

Abstract

A model is described for economic analysis of wind energy systems which calculates the internal rate of return and the costs of the electricity produced for various system configurations and management options. Calculations have been made for the economics of four types of wind turbines (16, 25, 34 and 45 m rotor diameter). Different types of windfarms (isolated wind turbine and 10 or 40 wind turbines in line or cluster) are distinguished. The electricity production, investments- and exploitation costs are estimated for the years 1990 and 2000. The economic calculations present results for two forms of management: by private enterprise or public utilities. A sensitivity analysis has been carried out with respect to differences in wind regime, electricity prices, investments costs and economic lifetime. A data-base on the parameters used is included. 31 figs., 13 tabs., 5 apps.
