Risø DTU is the first in the world to connect polymer solar cells to the grid

As the first in the world, a strong Danish research and industrial collaboration has connected a polymer solar cell plant to the grid. For a long time Risø’s solar energy programme has been conducting research into polymer solar cells, a cheap alternative to existing silicon-based solar cells. Research is now at such an advanced stage that a demonstration plant has been built at Risø DTU.

From the beginning Risø’s research into solar cells based on polymer materials has had a strong focus on production, demonstration and application. As part of an experiment made in cooperation with the companies Mekoprint A/S and Gaia Solar A/S the polymer solar cells have now been connected to the grid at Risø.

”The demonstration is an excellent example of how cooperation between research and industry promotes technology development and creates the initial basis for implementing new technology in society," says Henrik Bindslev, Director of Risø DTU.

The polymer solar cells for the solar cell plant have been produced in collaboration with Mekoprint A/S, who specializes in “roll to roll” production of flex-print and printed electronics.

After the production of the solar cells – and in collaboration with Gaia Solar A/S - Risø DTU has manufactured large panels upon which the solar cells are mounted. Gaia Solar A / S specializes in module construction of silicon solar cell panels and has built Risø’s polymer solar cells into their design. The panel is placed on a tracker which follows the movement of the sun. The generated power is added to the grid.

Already in June 2008, Risø presented the polymer solar cells at the Roskilde Festival in cooperation with Mekoprint A / S. At that time the price was 4.500 € / W, but a huge effort made the price go down to 22 € / W in January 2009 and further down to 15 € / W in March 2009. At the end of 2009 the price is expected to be 4-5 € / W.

Collaboration with the industry seeks to promote the industrialization of polymer solar cells in Denmark and if this succeeds, polymer solar cells can become a ground-breaking energy technology to be used in Denmark and also for export. With such a goal-oriented effort polymer solar cells can become another Danish sustainable energy technology with tremendous export potential.

Advanced experiment is to make wind turbines more efficient and quiet

Tjæreborg Enge, 10 kilometres south of Esbjerg, is going to set the framework for some of the most advanced wind turbine experiments ever seen. A blade from one of the wind turbines in Tjæreborg Enge is removed and replaced with a test blade that has advanced measuring equipment. The measurements on the new test blade begin in May and aim at making the wind turbines of the future more efficient and quiet.


The experiments are going to provide an accurate picture of how the wind acts around a cross-section of a wind turbine blade. These air currents can be calculated and the calculations can be used for designing new blade profiles. Unfortunately the calculation models are not quite accurate, so a piece of the newly designed blade will have to be tested inside a wind tunnel. But these measurements are not entirely accurate either. For in the wind tunnel the blade is standing still during the measurements, while the blade rotates in real life, just as the atmospheric wind is different than the flow inside a wind tunnel. Moreover, the blade is elastic and therefore it moves. All these uncertainties will become significantly smaller because of the new experiments.

LM Glasfiber has produced the blade
The advanced test blade has been produced by LM Glasfiber. Seen from outside it looks like the blades that are already attached to the wind turbine. However, it carries measuring devices. More than 300 measurement points will be read 30 to 100 times per second and some of them up to 50,000 times per second. The only visible thing on the blade is 4 small pipes, pointing out from the front edge of the blade. They measure the wind which hits the blade on the place where the blade has a number of small holes (1 mm in diameter) making it possible to measure the pressure distribution on the blade.

The measurements will take 3-4 months starting in May 2009, after the test blade has been attached to the wind turbine. The measurements will be made in series lasting 3-4 days. When there are no ongoing measurements on the turbine, it will stand still or rotate quite slowly in order to protect the instruments. There will be no measurements during rainy or humid weather, as it may cause damage to the instruments.

Noise measurements
In periods noise measurements are carried out on the wind turbine, as the test programme also includes basic conditions concerning noise from wind turbines.

Finally, a few times laser beams will be used to measure the wind conditions. The laser system is a so-called LIDAR instrument, which is able to measure the wind speed at a point far from the instrument by means of a thin laser beam. This means that when placed on the ground the instrument can make measurements high above where the blades are rotating. A LIDAR throws a beam into the air and is not of any danger to humans or animals in the area.

Cooperation among Vestas, Siemens, LM, DONG Energy and Risø DTU
The research project ”Experimental rotor- and profile aerodynamics on MW wind turbines” is supported by the Danish energy research programme EFP-2007. The major Danish industries within wind energy take part in this project and support it financially. Participants in the project are Risø DTU, Vestas, Siemens, LM and DONG

RISO: PhD Position - Ecosystem Modelling

"Effects of climatic variability and extreme events on carbon cycling in terrestrial ecosystems".

The Ecosystems Programme (ECO) at Risø DTU offers a three years PhD position starting in June 2009.

The Projekt
It is well known that global averages of CO2 concentrations, air temperature will continue to rise. Response studies in terrestrial ecosystems have so far focussed on these average climatic changes. However both historical observations and projections of future climate indicate enhanced climatic variability which will lead to possibly much more severe ecosystem response patterns. This PhD project will investigate ecosystem responses to changing climate variability with a particular focus on effects of altered precipitation patterns on carbon cycling and sequestration.

Kernel of the work is using several dynamic ecosystem models for long-term simulations of carbon, water and nitrogen stocks and fluxes using measured and reconstructed historical data for two intensively studied Danish sites, the climate manipulation heathland site CLIMAITE and the long-term flux observation beech forest site, Sorø. The PhD project will take advantage of an outstanding set of biogeochemical and biological field data. The work is embedded in several national and international projects and will directly cooperate with a newly established EU project, CarboExtreme, and the DTU Climate Centre. This enables close interaction with leading Danish and other European research institutions in the field of climate change impact research.

Your qualifications
We seek an energetic candidate with strong interest in data analysis and modelling of terrestrial ecosystems with excellent communication skills and experience in computer programming, e.g. use of a fourth generation programming software (e.g. R, SAS, MATLAB, IDL).

We offer
The ECO programme offers family friendly and pleasant working conditions in a team of internationally acknowledged scientist and students. The Danish Technical University (DTU) is among the leading European technical Universities and offers excellent training opportunities for PhD students.

Terms of employment
The terms of employment will be in accordance with those of the scientific staff at universities. Salary will depend on qualifications and experience. The position is for a fixed duration. The place of work is Risø DTU in Roskilde.

Application
We must have your online application by 17 May 2009. Please open the link "apply online", fill in the application form and attach your application documents, such as short description of personal motivation and qualification, C.V., publication list, addresses and e-mail of two references, copies of educational documents.

RISO: PhD scholarship at the Fuel Cells and Solid State Chemistry Division

Degradation mechanisms on LSCF cathodes

Do you want to help develop innovative and environmentally friendly energy technologies for the future?

The Fuel Cells and Solid State Chemistry Division at Risø DTU is among the world’s research leaders in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) – a technology for clean and efficient conversion of chemical energy (in the form of, e.g., natural gas, hydrogen, biogas, ammonia or methanol) into electricity and heat. In addition we have activities within a number of related topics in functional ceramics, including high-temperature electrolysis, oxygen and hydrogen separation membranes, electrochemical flue gas purification and magnetic refrigeration.

Strontium and iron co-doped lanthanum cobaltite (LSCF, La1-xSrxCo1-yFeyO3-δ) is a mixed oxygen ion and electron conductor. LSCF shows good conductivity and electro-catalytic activity at T < 700 oC and is recognized as a promising cathode material for low temperature SOFCs which are currently being developed by many consortia around the world. However, the LSCF cathode degrades over extended periods of time. The origin of the degradation is unclear at the moment.

Project description
The project aims to identify the chemical and the structural degradation mechanisms of the LSCF cathode under realistic environmental conditions. The focus will be the phase stability of LSCF itself and its chemical compatibility with other SOFC components. Self-consistent thermodynamic databases of the relevant systems will be built up utilizing the CALPHAD method. Theoretical thermodynamic calculations and model electrochemical experiments will then be conducted to clarify the major degradation mechanism of the LSCF cathode. This project will be done in close collaboration with Topsoe Fuel Cell A/S.

RISO: PhD in Polymer Photovoltaics / Polymer Solar Cells

The exploitation of polymer materials for converting sunlight into electricity through polymer solar cells for direct consumption or later usage through external storage are believed to convey several advantages such as light weight, flexibility, environmental friendliness, a low thermal budget, low cost and most notably very fast modes of production by printing techniques. Production issues are slowly starting to be addressed and production of very large area plastic solar cell modules up 1000 square centimetres have been reported. Production experiments have shown that it is highly feasible with existing technology to mass produce polymer solar cells at a very low cost, e.g. by the use of roll-to-roll (R2R) printing techniques. While the operational stability has been addressed an area that has received very little attention is the mechanisms that cause degradation, which are responsible for the inadequate lifetime of polymer solar cells.

The Solar Energy Programme at Risø DTU is among the world’s research leaders in polymer solar cells – a cost-efficient alternative to silicon-based solar cells. The solar cell group is expanding in various scientific directions covering all possible aspects of polymer solar cells. The Solar Energy Programme consists of a dynamical and versatile group of people with a positive team spirit. The PhD student will be a part of the team and focus on degradation mechanisms in R2R produced polymer solar cells with the aim of lengthening the lifetime of R2R-produced polymer solar cells.
