Objective
To save energy for the operation of an existing desalination plant by installing three medium size wind turbines and to demonstrate that the wind turbines directly connected to the desalination plant and parallel connected to the grid (for back-up) is a mechanically and economically feasible system.
The original project site was the island of Ithaki. Wind measurements together with the numerical simulation of the region were performed in phase I, together with the basic design, the design of the control system and data acquisition system and detailed engineering. Phase 2 consists of the order planning and manufacturing of the wind turbines, the control system and the data acquisition system and the foyer control and connection. In phase 3, civil works at the sites of installation of the W/T will be carried out and transportation, installation and erection of the whole system will be performed together with the power line from the W/T to the desalination plant. Phase 4 includes commissioning, measurements and evaluation, preliminary tests of short eluration will be performed and 10 parameters of the systems operation will be measured. Only one of the 3, 150 kW Nordtank wind turbines will be supported by the Commission.
