Surface turbulence intensity as a predictor of extrapolated wind resource to the turbine hub height: method's test at an offshore site

Abstract

Originally developed and validated at the Cabauw (Netherlands) topographically flat onshore location, the α–I wind resource extrapolating method was tested at the FINO3 offshore site in the North Sea (Germany). The aim was to prove its validity also when applied over a substantially different environment in terms of surface characteristics and stability conditions. Data from local mast at 30, 80, and 100 m were used, with extrapolations to 80-m and 100-m turbine hub heights accomplished based on 30-m turbulence intensity observations. Trained over a 2-year period (2011–2012), the method was validated on year 2013.
