New Jersey Offshore Wind Energy Project Receives 3 Bids

OE Digital reported that state Board of Public Utilities received three bids from firms interested in building wind projects, but it wouldn’t identify any of them, according to Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis. According to IEEFA, Ørsted, Equinor, EDF Renewables all bid for stake in New Jersey offshore wind market. The Danish wind company, Orsted, said it submitted one of the bids.

The state is seeking companies to build projects that would generate at least 1,100 megawatts of electricity. Orsted estimates that amount could power more than a half-million homes. Gov. Phil Murphy has made wind energy a priority, and hopes to have 3,500 megawatts in place off the state’s coastline within the next 11 years.

Another company, Atlantic Shores Offshore Wind, says it’s interested in developing a project that could provide up to 2,500 megawatts. The firm, which is a joint venture between Shell and EDF Renewables North America, confirmed Monday that it applied as well.

Mr Thomas Brostrom, CEO of Orsted US Offshore Wind and president of Orsted North America said that “Today is an important milestone in the state’s desire to build out its renewable energy portfolio. As the global leader in the development of offshore wind, we are confident in our ability to deliver a comprehensive, competitive project that will help Gov. Murphy achieve his goal of 3,500 megawatts of offshore wind by 2030, while boosting the economy and creating jobs.”

A third firm, Norway-based Equinor, has said it is developing an offshore wind project in New Jersey that it calls “Boardwalk Wind.” Company officials could not be reached Monday to confirm whether Equinor filed an application, but the company has spoken extensively in recent months about its interest in doing a wind energy project in the state, and it won a federal auction for an offshore lease site off New Jersey and Long Island, New York.

Enel starts construction in US

Enel, through its US renewable subsidiary Enel Green Power North America, Inc started construction of the around 450 MW High Lonesome wind farm in Upton and Crockett Counties, in Texas. Once completed, High Lonesome will be the largest wind farm in Enel’s global renewables portfolio. The energy generated by a 295 MW portion of the wind farm will be hedged through a Proxy Revenue Swap a risk management strategy aimed at minimising price and weather-related risks.

Mr Antonio Cammisecra, Head of Enel Green Power said that “The start of construction of our largest wind project to-date represents a major commitment to growing our business in the US and specifically in Texas. The project underscores our ability to work with partners to tailor energy solutions to fit their needs and continue to manage and deliver to our customers the complex deals necessary in today’s evolving energy market. We look forward to continuing to serve as the partner of choice, dedicated to delivering a sustainable energy future.”

Investment in the construction of High Lonesome amounts to approximately 600 million US dollars and is part of the investment outlined in Enel’s 2019-2021 strategic plan. The project is currently financed through the Group’s own resources and is expected to enter into operations by the end of 2019. Once fully operational, the wind farm will be able to generate around 1.7 TWh annually, while avoiding the emission of over 1.1 million tons of CO2 per year.

Enel has entered into a PRS for a 295 MW portion of the project with insurer Allianz Global Corporate & Specialty, Inc.’s Alternative Risk Transfer unit (Allianz), and Nephila Climate, a provider of weather and climate risk management products. The PRS is a financial derivative agreement designed to produce stable revenues for the project regardless of power price fluctuations and weather-driven intermittency, hedging shape risk in addition to risk associated to price and volume.

Under this agreement, High Lonesome will receive fixed payments based on the expected value of future energy production, with adjustments payed depending on how the realised proxy revenue of the project differs from the fixed payment. The PRS for High Lonesome, which is the largest by capacity for a single plant globally and the first agreement of its kind for Enel, was executed in collaboration with REsurety, Inc., a leader in renewable energy risk management and information services.

Mr Karsten Berlage, Managing Director, Allianz Risk Transfer said that “The construction of High Lonesome is a strong testament to the popularity and success of innovative renewable energy protections. The majority of today’s stakeholders champion the continued growth of renewables and that is why Allianz is committed to flexible strategies such as the PRS that mitigate those risks - long term.”

Mr Lee Taylor, Co-Founder and CEO, Resurety said that “Renewable energy projects are under increasing pressure to deliver predictable returns despite the increasing volatility of the value of intermittent generation. We developed the Proxy Revenue Swap specifically to deliver unrivalled certainty of cash flows, regardless of power price volatility and weather-driven intermittency. We are delighted to have had the opportunity to collaborate with Enel, Allianz and Nephila to bring the largest PRS transaction to fruition.”
