ABSTRACT

This paper will give a general overview of the results from a EU JOULE funded project (“Implementing short-term prediction at utilities”, JOR3-CT95-0008). References will be given to specialised papers where applicable. The goal of the project was to implement wind farm power output prediction systems in operational environments at a number of utilities in Europe. Two models were developed, one by Risø and one by the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). Both prediction models used HIRLAM predictions from the Danish Meteorological Institute (DMI).
