Register of wind turbines

Data from the register in Excel format
The register data are available in two different Excel format versions.
   

One version contains site and power output data of all wind turbines. The data are organized in two groups: one of operating  and one of decommissioned wind turbines.

Another version contains solely data on operating wind turbines. This version contains in extent links to the Danish Energy Agency’s map server.

Regular data updating

The Danish Energy Agency updates the data once a month in conformity with reports received from the power distribution companies and Energinet.dk (grid service provider).

 

Reporting to the Danish Energy Agency is due by the 15th of the following month; thus monthly data are available on this site with approximately one month’s delay.

 

Background for the register

The Danish Energy Agency has in corporation with Energinet.dk and the power distribution companies established this national register of wind turbines.

 

The register is used for administration, statistics and price control including full-load hour assessment as well as in accordance with the EU directive about the promotion of electricity produced from renewable energy sources in the internal electricity market.

 

The data

Energinet.dk forwards  lists of wind turbines and information on power output to the Danish Energy Agency. The list is based on data received from the power distribution companies.

 

The data are updated regularly and the updates include among other things:

·        New and decommissioned wind turbines

·        Changes in information on operating turbines

·        New and adjusted information on output

 

Each record in the register contains information on one specific wind turbine. A group of e.g. 5 wind turbines connected to the same meter must be reported as 5 distinct wind turbines, i.e. 5 separate records in the register. 

 

It is obligatory that owners must report information on each individual wind turbine. Firstly, with a view to future settling rules (especially concerning the original output full-load hour assessment). Secondly, to make the register robust to future changes in e.g. settling rules and any consequent need for additional data and control.
