Abstract

This paper gives a summary of ongoing work on the assessment of the wind energy resource off the coast of southern New England in the United States. This project was carried out to determine the potential for the near-term development of offshore wind energy projects in that region. The work summarized here consists of four aspects: (1) a review of existing offshore wind data, (2) the measurement of new data at an offshore site, (3) correlation and prediction of long-term data at a new offshore site by reference to a longer-term island site and (4) assessment of the overall coastal resource through the use of the MesoMap software.
