Abstract
We present a new high resolution wind resource and wind power dataset named NORA3-WP. The dataset covers the North Sea, the Baltic Sea and parts of the Norwegian and Barents Seas. The 3-km Norwegian reanalysis (NORA3) forms the basis for the new dataset. NORA3-WP is an open access dataset intended for use in research, governmental management and for stakeholders to attain relevant wind resource and wind power information in the planning phase of a new wind farm project. The variables are available as monthly data, and provides a climatological overview of 25 wind resource and wind power related variables for three selected turbines for the ocean areas surrounding Norway. In addition, the underlying hourly wind speed data and hourly wind power generation for three selected turbines are also available for higher frequency analysis and case-studies.
