Offshore Wind Capacity Factor Map

Monash University under commission of Geoscience Australia produced an offshore wind capacity factor map assessed at a 150m hub height applying the Bureau of Meteorology 10 year (2009-2018) BARRA hindcast model. The wind capacity factor has been calculated using the bounding curve of all scaled power curves for wind turbines available within the Open Energy Platform as of 2021. Average wind capacity factor values were also calculated for the Vestas V126 3.45MW and the GE V130 3.2MW wind turbines.

受澳大利亚地质调查局（Geoscience Australia）委托，莫纳什大学（Monash University）基于澳大利亚气象局2009—2018年共10年的BARRA后报模型（BARRA hindcast model），生成了轮毂高度为150米的海上风电容量因子分布图。本次风电容量因子的计算采用了截至2021年开放能源平台（Open Energy Platform）收录的所有经过标准化缩放的风力发电机组功率曲线的包络线。研究同时针对维斯塔斯V126型3.45兆瓦以及通用电气（GE）V130型3.2兆瓦风力发电机组，计算了其平均风电容量因子数值。
