The most similar predictor – on selecting measurement locations for wind resource assessment [PDF]
Wind Energy Science, 2020 We present the “most similar” method for selecting optimal measurement positions for wind resource assessment. Wind resource assessment is generally done by extrapolating a measured and long-term corrected wind climate at one location to a prediction

Wind-Turbine and Wind-Farm Flows: A Review [PDF]
Boundary-Layer Meteorology, 2019 AbstractWind energy, together with other renewable energy sources, are expected to grow substantially in the coming decades and play a key role in mitigating climate change and achieving energy sustainability. One of the main challenges in optimizing the design, operation, control, and grid integration of wind farms is the prediction of their ...
