Ground Effects Topical Group: Understanding GIC and Future Energy Supply in Europe

The Ground Effects Topical Group (GETG) session focuses on understanding geomagnetic induced currents (GIC) and their impact on future energy supply in Europe. Key discussions include the nomination for the next GETG chair, GIC risk assessments, and the potential of solar and renewable energy sources in Europe connected through HVDC links. Presentations will feature insights from experts like Larisa Trichtchenko (NRCan) and Mike Hapgood. Additionally, we will explore advancements in GIC climatology and propose ideas for a centralized science data center for industry outreach.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Ground Effects Topical Group • Introduction • Scope and purpose of the TGs and GETG in particular • ‘Ground effects’ session on directional drilling on Wednesday morning • Nominations for Next Chair of GETG • Larisa Trichtchenko (NRCan) with co-chair Magnus Wik (IRF Sweden) • GIC & Future Energy Supply in Europe • Mike Hapgood: Solar and renewable energy sources connected by HVDC links from the periphery of Europe • Europe GIC risk assessment needed, new FP7 opportunity (Security)? • Science Outlook for GETG in Cycle 24 • Can we forecast GIC and in what way (based on Canadian experience)? • Can we also better estimate ground effects climatology (e.g. dB/dt)? • ‘Science data centre’ for GIC (centralised resource of data and reference materials for industry and outreach)? • Open Contributions & Updates • FMI (Manitoba GIC study; China GIC research) • NRCan (Extreme values climatology; work on GIC indices) • BGS (UK grid development; planned UK - South Africa workshop) • Russia (St Petersburg EM conference next year) ESWW5 19th November 2008
