SESSION 1: Launch of the New European Wind Atlas<\/h3>\n

Session Chair: Mike Anderson, Independent Expert<\/h4>\n

SESSION DESCRIPTION<\/h5>\n

Since 2015, 30 partners from 8 countries have been collaborating Europe-wide on the New European Wind Atlas (NEWA) project. Funded via ERANET+, we have been developing and validating new methodologies for the assessment of wind conditions. These methodologies span advanced developments in both measurement and modelling science. We will report on several dedicated large-scale wind measurement campaigns, focusing on situations important for wind power utilisation. We will also discuss new dynamical downscaling methodologies, employing ensembles, and improvements to modelling high temporal and spatial resolution.<\/p>\n

LEARNING OBJECTIVES<\/h5>\n
    \n
  • Attendees will gain an understanding of the measurement science advances made during the project<\/li>\n
  • Attendees will learn about new modelling science and validation, including using ensemble techniques<\/li>\n
  • Attendees will learn about the design and user interface for the New European Wind Atlas<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    SESSION 2: Using data to reduce uncertainty<\/h3>\n

    Session Chair:\u00a0Lars Landberg<\/strong>, Director, Group Leader, Renewables, Strategic Research and Innovation,\u00a0DNV GL<\/h4>\n
    SESSION DESCRIPTION<\/h5>\n

    One of the biggest challenges in wind resource estimation is uncertainty: we need to understand its sources and its layers. This session will address both these aspects. What is key is that our understanding needs to be based on data. The session will start out by looking at how the accuracy of preconstruction analysis can be improved. It will then zoom in on three specific aspects: how fidelity in orography models affects results; how ERA5 data can be used for downscaling; and what the effect of atmospheric icing is. In each case, data will be used to inform the estimation and analysis of uncertainty. Finally, we will look at how LIDARs can be used in reducing uncertainty in wind resource estimation.<\/p>\n

    LEARNING OBJECTIVES<\/h5>\n
      \n
    • What is a preconstruction analysis, and how can it be improved?<\/li>\n
    • What is the role of orographic models in flow modelling, and how can different input sources affect the accuracy?<\/li>\n
    • What is reanalysis data and how can the ERA5 dataset be used in downscaling?<\/li>\n
    • What is icing, what are its effects and how can we validate models and understand the uncertainties?<\/li>\n
    • What are scanning LIDARs, and how can they be used to improve wind resource estimation?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      SESSION DESCRIPTION<\/h5>\n

      Reducing uncertainty should be a priority in wind flow modelling, due the fact is an especially important contributor to the total uncertainty for wind resource and energy production estimates, especially for large projects involving numerous wind turbines.<\/p>\n

      This session presents different approaches for understanding wind flow modelling uncertainty and illustrates some applications in the wind industry.<\/p>\n

        SESSION 4: Using LiDars to reduce uncertainty<\/h3>\n

        Session Chair: Jake Badger, Head of Section,\u00a0DTU Wind Energy<\/h4>\n

        SESSION DESCRIPTION<\/h5>\n

        LIDARs have now become mainstream and are regularly being used as the sole instrument for the measurement and quantification of wind speed and turbulence intensity. This is true for both on- and offshore wind, where LIDARs are mounted on floating structures. This session looks at a range of topics, ranging from calibration to reducing uncertainties.<\/p>\n

        LEARNING OBJECTIVES<\/h5>\n
          \n
        • Attendees will gain understanding of how turbulence can be measured using a vertical profiling LIDAR<\/li>\n
        • Attendees will be able appreciate the differences in the turbulence intensity measured by remote sensing devices compared to anemometers<\/li>\n
        • Attendees will be able to understand how LIDARs can be calibrated without using a cup anemometer as a reference<\/li>\n
        • Attendees will gain an appreciation of the uncertainties of floating LIDARs \u2013 how they may be reduced<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          SESSION 5: Wakes and forests<\/h3>\n

          Session Chair: Pep Moreno, CEO, Vortex<\/h4>\n

          SESSION DESCRIPTION<\/h5>\n

          Wakes in a standard wind farm can create losses that, on average, can range between 10 to 20%. No one taking wind development seriously can ignore such a critical element in wind farm efficiency. Until now, however, this issue has neither been fully understood nor modelled by the industry.<\/p>\n

          In this session, we\u2019ll be deep-diving on this topic with researchers and professionals at the cutting edge of this issue. We will also examine a case study from a forest environment.<\/p>\n
