Model data long-term yield potential offshore wind energy North Sea - Scenario 9 2006 -08

The data covers the calculated yields of wind farms in German territory and the German exclusive economic zone (EEZ) and the relevant wind conditions under the assumption of an expansion of offshore wind energy defined in different scenarios. The calculations were carried out with the numerical weather model WRF using a parameterization of wind farms according to Fitch. The data are available in 10-minute temporal and 2 km x 2 km spatial resolution for the North Sea for the meteorological year 2006. The variables of the data set are wind speed (WS) and wind direction (WD) at 9 height levels between 50 m and 350 m, the power (POWER) of the wind turbines from each grid cell and the air density. A detailed description of the variables can be found in the files.本数据集涵盖德国领土及德国专属经济区（EEZ）内风电场的计算出力，以及不同情景下设定的海上风电扩张假设条件下的相关风况。本次计算采用数值天气预报模式WRF，并依据Fitch风电场参数化方案完成设置。针对北海区域，数据集采用2006年气象年的时间分辨率为10分钟、空间分辨率为2km×2km的格式提供。数据集包含的变量为：50m至350m间9个高度层的风速（WS）与风向（WD）、各网格单元内风力发电机组的发电功率（POWER）以及空气密度。各变量的详细说明可参阅配套文件。
