Trading rights to consume wind in presence of farm-farm interactions

Abstract

Michiel Kenis is a PhD researcher at the Energy Systems Integration & Modeling Group at the University of Leuven with a doctoral mandate from the Flemish Institute for Technological Research (VITO). He was a visiting researcher at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. His research focuses on cross-border electricity markets. He holds a MSc in energy engineering and a MSc in policy economics, both from the University of Leuven. Luca Lanzilao completed his MSc degree in mathematical engineering from Politecnico di Torino in 2018. Currently, he is pursuing a PhD at KU Leuven. His research focuses on studying the response of the atmospheric boundary layer to wind farm forcing, with particular emphasis on meso-scale phenomena, such as gravity waves. Kenneth Bruninx received a MSc degree in energy engineering in 2011, a MSc in management, and a PhD degree in mechanical engineering in 2016, all from the University of Leuven (KU Leuven), Belgium. Currently, he is an assistant professor at the Faculty of Technology, Policy, and Management of TU Delft, Netherlands and a research fellow at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, KU Leuven, Belgium. His research interests include market design, policies, and regulation for integrated energy systems. Johan Meyers is a professor of mechanical engineering at KU Leuven since 2009. His research focuses on the simulation of turbulent flows and the atmospheric boundary layer with applications in wind energy. In 2012, he obtained an ERC grant on wind farm control and has been involved in various European projects on wind energy since. He served as the vice president of the European Academy of Wind Energy from 2017 to 2019 and as its president from 2019 to end of 2021. He has been active as an associate editor for Computers & Fluids and is currently an associate editor for Wind Energy Science. Erik Delarue received MSc and PhD degrees in mechanical engineering from the University of Leuven, Belgium, in 2005 and 2009, respectively. He is currently an associate professor with the University of Leuven, TME Branch (energy conversion) and active with EnergyVille. His research focus and expertise are on quantitative tools, supporting an efficient operation of, and transition toward, a low-carbon energy system (mathematical modeling of energy systems). Applications relate to flexibility through energy systems integration, market design, and energy policies.
