Abstract

This study examines the impact of bias correction on the prediction of offshore wind power ramp events (WPREs) using NOAA's High-Resolution Rapid Refresh (HRRR) model. The analysis focuses on New England's offshore region, using Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) wind observations and the power curve derived from the nearby Block Island wind farm as a reference. The study characterizes bias in terms of amplitude and phase, finding a 30-min systematic lag error and a marginal underestimation of high wind speeds. Perfect bias correction treatments including both the amplitude and the phase are applied to HRRR wind speed, and their impact on WPREs is assessed using categorical performance measures. A large discrepancy in the number of cases with HRRR having much fewer cases than the reference is found, which is attributed to the model's temporal and spatial resolution. The results show that the amplitude bias correction has a marginal impact on reducing frequency bias, while the dynamic time warping (DTW) used in the phase bias correction shows promising results but limited performance. The study concludes that phase bias correction can be a feasible option to reduce bias in WPREs in offshore power systems.
