- Business Plan: WindScanner.PTPublication . Grosso, José; Campos, José; Frölén, Luís; Simões, TeresaABSTRACT: Wind energy is becoming one of the leading sources of power in Europe. The installed capacity increases each year, with the offshore wind gradually evolving with even more significant potential than onshore. This growing tendency has also been promoting a more extensive research effort in this area, pushed by the climatic crisis that has also driven political support from multiple nations across Europe. Wind energy has employed over 250 thousand EU citizens and contributed to around 10% of European electrical consumption. Although high milestones have been achieved, there is still much room to grow in the wind energy sector, particularly cost reduction. The WindScanner.pt project aims to create a European distributed research infrastructure based on high precision sensors able to analyze fluid dynamics in tridimensional volumes, offering the ability to understand atmospheric conditions and turbulence better. This asset will not only allow better assessment of the wind conditions. Still, it will also enable the evaluation of projects in other areas where fluid dynamics are relevant, such as civil engineering and the building industry, by scanning the surroundings of large structures such as bridges and viaducts and measuring structure oscillations.
- Governance: WindScanner.PTPublication . Grosso, José; Campos, José; Frölén, Luís; Simões, TeresaABSTRACT: This document presents the governance structure foreseen for the operationalization of the WindScanner.PT research infrastructure. The methodology for the implementation of the governance structure, followed the one developed for the European Infrastructure WindScanner.EU, which was the origin of this Portuguese RI. However, as the European RI did not move forward due to a series of situations related to the infrastructure financing rules of the various members of the European consortium. In this sense the Portuguese consortium decided to maintain the project and adapt the RI structure to the Portuguese context and follow a simple model based on the usual research projects, and based on the governance structure defined for WindScanner.EU.
- Windscanner.PT: National Research InfrastructurePublication . Simões, Teresa; Frölén, LuísABSTRACT: This document presents a contribution to the project's activities, developed under Task#4 and Task #5 of the WindScanner.PT Research Infrastructure (PINFRA/22207/2016). The main activities developed under this project were the Business Plan and Governance Structure related with legal documentation, and data processing and modelling, related with field experiments using Lidars. The Business Plan and Governance Structure are detailed in two separate reports developed by LNEG and IPB. In this sense, this report summarises the content of these two reports, and the details are presented on Annexes I and III of this document. In addition to the business plan elaboration, a budgeting tool was developed to support the RI activities and is presented in Annex II. In this project, two research fellowships were foreseen by LNEG, and both the contracted students contributed to the development of the Business Plan and Governance Structure. In addition, they have also contributed to the knowledge on data processing and modelling, using Lidar sensors and other data sources. The activities' reports are presented in Annexes IV and V of this document. Finally, this document, presents the indicators achieved at the end of the project.
