Model data long-term yield potential offshore wind energy North Sea - Scenario 21 2006 -07

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量，以及不同情景下海上风电扩张假设条件对应的相关风况。所有计算均借助数值天气预报模型WRF完成，并采用Fitch提出的风电场参数化方案。该数据集覆盖2006年气象年的北海区域，时空分辨率分别为10分钟与2 km×2 km。数据集包含的变量包括：50 m至350 m间9个高度层级的风速（Wind Speed, WS）与风向（Wind Direction, 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。变量的详细说明可参见配套文件。
