Description

Available data:

- Brazilian wind power generation time series derived from MERRA-2 reanalysis data with wind speed and wind power bias correction.

- Wind speed correction factors derived from INMET wind speeds (http://www.inmet.gov.br/portal/) as well as wind power correction factors dervied from ONS wind power generation time series are also provided.

- Simulation of about 38 years of wind power generation with fixed capacity.

Data used for validation:

- Historical wind power generation data, which were used for validation of simulated time series, can be found at the ONS homepage (http://ons.org.br/Paginas/resultados-da-operacao/historico-da-operacao/geracao_energia.aspx).
