The substantial expansion of offshore wind capacity from 4.5 gigawatts in 2023 to as much as 21 GW in 2030 requires action on many fronts. One way in which TNO is contributing to this is by accurately mapping wind speeds over the North Sea. As two new wind farms, good for almost 5 GW, are […]
New measurement location is now operational to support offshore wind development in the Netherlands.
A new measurement location is now operational to support offshore wind development in the Netherlands. TNO executes a long term offshore wind measurement campaign to support the offshore wind development in the Netherlands. Various profiling LiDARs are installed at offshore platforms and all data are publicly made available at www.windopzee.net. New wind development zones have […]
New K13a report published
In order to better understand the wind conditions at the North Sea for future offshore wind farms a ZX Lidars ZX300M V2 LiDAR was installed at the K13-A platform of Wintershall Noordzee B.V. in 2016. This report describes the background of the measurement campaign, the platform itself, the used LiDAR system, data sources and operational […]
New EPL instrumentation report
In order to better understand the wind conditions at the North Sea for future offshore wind farms a ZX300 LiDAR from ZXLidars was installed at the Europlatform (EPL) platform in 2016. This report describes the Europlatform, used LiDAR system, installation, configuration, data handling and operational aspects. This new report is an updated version of earlier […]
