What can surface wind observations tell us about interannual variation in wind energy output?
The past decade of wind power growth was supported by capacity factor improvements and associated cost reductions. But are higher capacity factors a technology success story or, as suggested by recent research, has the influence of technology been ...

Wind Derivatives: Modeling and Pricing [PDF]
Wind is considered to be a free, renewable and environmentally friendly source of energy. However, wind farms are exposed to excessive weather risk since the power production depends on the wind speed, the wind direction and the wind duration.

Analysis of the influence of the wind speed profile on wind power production
The characterization of wind speed and its variability at a site is important for wind resource assessment. The most readily available wind measurements are at 10 m above ground level.
