Seminar: Wind Resource Assessment From Measurements to bankable reports

Wind resource assessment has become a specific science discipline.

The European windatlas model WAsP has been the standard approach for site assessment studies for a long time. Complex terrain and hub heights well above 100 m require even more sophisticated methodologies. Advanced atmospheric mesoscale models and computational fluid dynamic codes (CFD) as well as global reanalysis data are
standard options for resource assessment studies. In addition the estimation of yield reductions due to wind turbine operation restrictions receives increasing attention.

Learn more about the latest technologies and methods of precise estimation of wind potential and wind farm energy output. After the workshop you will be able to fi nd the optimal strategy for a wind resource assessment at any particular site. Furthermore, after the workshop you will be able to “read” a site assessment report, evaluate the data and procedures applied and fi nd the basis for commercial
considerations. This workshop will explore the industry’s needs, focus on state-of-the-art techniques and technologies and provide a critical insight into key matters by which we make our energy forecast.

The seminar is a part of COWEC - Conference of the Wind Power Engineering Community, but can also be booked seperately.
