North Sea region energy system towards 2050: integrated offshore grid and sector coupling drive offshore wind power installations [PDF]
Wind Energy Science, 2020 This paper analyses several energy system scenarios towards 2050 for the North Sea region. With a focus on offshore wind power, the impacts of meshed offshore grid and sector coupling are studied. First, a project-based scenario, where each offshore wind

Climate Change Mitigation Potential of Wind Energy
Climate, 2021 Global wind resources greatly exceed current electricity demand and the levelized cost of energy from wind turbines has shown precipitous declines. Accordingly, the installed capacity of wind turbines grew at an annualized rate of about 14% during the ...

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

Estimation of Weibull parameters for wind energy analysis across the UK
Journal of Renewable and Sustainable Energy, 2021 Harvesting wind energy resources is a major part of the UK strategy to diversify the power supply portfolio and mitigate environmental degradation. Based on wind speed data for the period 1981–2018, collected at 38 surface observation stations, this ...
