Session description

Understanding the impact of wind resource and site conditions on turbine performance is crucial to designing and optimising wind farms. The presentations in this session will explore how wind flow and wake models can be utilised to better assess turbine performance and how they can be validated against real world measurements to improve model accuracy.
