Norwegian Hydropower and large scale Wind Generation in the North Sea

Problem description Several HVDC links between Norway and Great Britain have been proposed. One of these links is passing by the planned offshore wind farm Dogger Bank. This renders it possible to utilize the flexibility between Norwegian hydro power, wind generation at Dogger Bank and the Great Britain power system. Calculations and simulations for different cable connection sites should be carried out using the EMPS-model. Additionally, price formation in the different markets and issues related to transmission constraint in Western Norway and Great Britain are important factors. The following tasks are included:- Create a model of the present power system in Great Britain.- Simulate and discuss different cable alternatives from Norway to Scotland and Southern England with the present power system.- Create a model for the Great Britain power system including Dogger Bank in 2020. Simulate and discuss different cable alternatives from Great Britain and Dogger Bank to Norway.- Evaluate the cable’s impact on the power systems in Norway an
