INTEGRATION OF THE TRTAR-KRTOLIN WIND POWER PLANT INTO THE TRANSMISSION

Uredbe Europske unije, te povećana potreba za energijom, postavili su nove zahtijeve glede proizvodnje električne energije iz obnovljivih izvora. Energija vjetra smatra se ekonomičnim izvorom s gledišta troškova i razvoja tehnologije. Kao jedan od najisplativijih izvora privlači veliki broj investitora, te je prihvatljivo da elektroenergetska mreža ima takav izvor energije u svom sustavu. Republika Hrvatska ima izraziti potencijal u iskorištavanju vjetroenergije. Prema istaživanjima Energetskog instituta Hrvoje Požar, EIHP on iznosi približno 8000 do 9000 MW, ali do sada je realizirano nešto manje od 700 MW. U Šibensko-kninskoj županji izgrađeno je pet vjetroelektrana: VE Danilo (43.7 MW), VE Glunča (20.7MW), VE Orlice ( 9.6 MW ), VE Crno Brdo (10.5 MW ) i VE Trtar-Krtolin (11.2 MW). U ovom radu izbrala se VE Trtar-Krtolin jer je prva puštena u rad (lipanj, 2006.).EU regulations and increased energy demand have led to the generation of electricity from renewable energy sources. One of the most promising sources of energy is wind because of its efficiency, economy and technology development. Wind energy has been promoted to the fastest growing branch of industry, and it is inconceivable today that an electricity grid does not have such an energy source in its system. Croatia has great potential in wind power, according to EIHP research, around 8000 to 9000 MW, but so far just under 700MW has been realized. In the County of Šibenik-Knin, five wind farms were built: Danilo (43.7 MW), Glunča (20.7MW), Orlice (9.6 MW), Crno Brdo (10.5 MW) and Trtar-Krtolin (11.2 MW). In this masters thesis I decided to write about Trtar-Krtolin wind farm because it is the first wind farm to be commissioned (June 2006) in this county
