14:30 - 16:00 Wake modelling and forecasting
Resource assessment


Room: Hall E
In the session there will be five presentations on wake modelling and forecasting. They will focus on the limitations in wake modelling including comparison with field data, and will move into short-term power production forecasting as well as studies of uncertainty in wind power forecast methods.

Learning objectives
- Understand the latest news regarding limitations and possibilities within wake modelling approaches;
- Exemplify forecast methods and their ability to accurately predict short time ahead production output;
- Address the importance of atmospheric stability in wind power forecasting and wake modelling;
- Determine whether simple linear wake combination methods as presently used in commercial analytical software can correctly represent turbine interactions.

Presenter's biography
Biographies are supplied directly by presenters at WindEurope Summit 2016 and are published here uneditedEric TROMEUR has been working in weather forecasts, climate-energy and wind industry for 10 years. He is currently Research Engineer at Meteodyn. He got his PhD in Applied Mathematics at the University of Paris 13 and studied computational fluid dynamics. Then, he spent 2 years at the Laboratoire de Météorologie Dynamique and 4 years at the NOAA-CREST and the Stony Brook University (USA) as Researcher and Adjunct professor in climate and Atmospheric Sciences. He worked on projects such as wind energy forecasts, urban climatology and climate change. His research is now focused on meso-scale meteorology, wind forecast and resource assessment.
