Overview • Grid Design in the IEE-study „OffshoreGrid“ • Mesoscale Wind Power Modelling • Fluctuations and Pan-European Wind Power Correlations
Meso-scale Model: WRF [m/s] FNL initialization 2-domain-setup, one-way-nesting 1st domain resolution: 27x27 km² 2nddomainresolution: 9x9 km² WRF-speeds [m/s] at 90m averages in 2007
Meso-scale Errors at FINO1 FINO1, alpha ventus Mean Wind Speeds at 100m: ~10m/s Mean Potential Power Production: ~50% of the installed Capacity

Conclusions • Meso-scale simulations exhibit stronger variability of regional power than former studies using only global-scale analysis • Large-scale wind power integration (e.g. 80%) will be much easier with an On+Offshore SuperGrid to smooth variability www.OffshoreGrid.eu www.SafeWind.eu jens.tambke@forwind.de
