Risk based approach for development of offshore HVDC transmission technologies 17.04.2012 Motivation Background  40 GW offshore wind in Northern Europe by 2020  150 GW offshore wind in Europe by 2030  Grid connection of offshore oil & gas installations  The vision of an offshore Super Grid The challenge  To date there exists no operational experience with high capacity offshore HVDC transmission technologies  Installations far from shore and in harsh marine environments will require high focus on Reliability, Availability and Maintainability  Interoperability challenges arise with technology from multiple vendors 4 Picture source: 50Herz

8 © Det Norske Veritas AS. All rights reserved. Risk based approach for development of offshore HVDC transmission technologies 17.04.2012 Technology Qualification Process DNV’s Definition of Qualification: Qualification is the process of providing the evidence that the technology will function within specific limits with an acceptable level of confidence.

9 © Det Norske Veritas AS. All rights reserved. Risk based approach for development of offshore HVDC transmission technologies 17.04.2012 Technology Qualification Process DNV RP-A203  First edition published in 2001  Qualification of new technologies where failure poses risk to life, property, the environment or high financial risk.  Qualification of technologies that are not new - Proven components assembled in a new way - Not covered by existing requirements and standards - Proven technology in a new environment  Developed for the offshore oil&gas industry to increase stakeholder confidence in applying new technologies.

11 © Det Norske Veritas AS. All rights reserved. Risk based approach for development of offshore HVDC transmission technologies 17.04.2012 Why do we need technology qualification? Testing is conducted according to old schemes that do not take into account new failure modes  Equipment placed in a new environment - Harsh climate - Difficult access  New approach to maintenance and repair strategy  Auxiliary systems - Control of indoor environment  Higher voltage, current and power ratings - Converter and cables  New applications - Multi-Terminal DC (MTDC) - Meshed MTDC grid  New design of major components - DC converter station and valves - Cables - DC switchgear  System behaviour - Control, protection and communication 11 Increases the RISK exposure

12 © Det Norske Veritas AS. All rights reserved. Risk based approach for development of offshore HVDC transmission technologies 17.04.2012 Added value of technology qualification for offshore HVDC  Demonstration of technology capabilities  Address stakeholder uncertainties - Maturity and uncertainty of technologies - Feasibility of offshore HVDC transmission  Address the risk exposure - Identification and categorization of technologies w.r.t. industry experience and maturity - Identification and understanding of failure modes and the risk picture - Development of methods and activities to address the risks - Overall reliability and availability of technologies and systems 12
