Model data long-term yield potential offshore wind energy North Sea - Scenario 2 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.本数据集涵盖德国境内及德国专属经济区（Exclusive Economic Zone，EEZ）内风电场的计算发电出力，以及不同海上风电扩张场景假设下的对应风况条件。本次计算采用数值天气预报模式WRF，并参照Fitch提出的风电场参数化方案完成。该数据集针对北海区域2006年气象年，以10分钟的时间分辨率与2 km×2 km的空间分辨率提供数据。数据集包含以下变量：50 m至350 m共9个高度层的风速（Wind Speed，WS）与风向（Wind Direction，WD）、各网格单元对应风力发电机组的发电功率（POWER）以及空气密度。变量的详细说明可参阅相关文件。
