Wake-effect included offshore wind power forecasting for smooth operation of the Belgian electricity grid based on advanced data handling and sensor technology, including airborne systems KU Leuven
“BeFORECAST's ambition is to improve weather models for forecasting offshore wind energy, enabling better management of the Belgian electricity grid and wind farms. This is achieved by incorporating wake effects from wind farms, which are not yet accounted for in current models, and integrating measurements into the predictions using machine learning such as data from offshore SCADA, RADARS, SATELLITES, LIDARS and innovative "fly ...
