NEWA Model-Chain Concept Statement

  • 1. CENER

Description

NEWA will develop a new reference methodology for wind resource assessment and wind turbine site suitability based on a mesoscale to microscale mode mode-chain. This new methodology will produce a more reliable wind characterization than current models,
models leading to a significant reduction of uncertainties on wind energy production and wind conditions that affect the design of wind turbines.

This report outlines the concept for the mesoscale-to-microscale model-chain for wind assessment applications.
