Vestas Offshore A/S
The offshore wind industry is still a very young industry and is consequently at an early stage of the learning curve. Vestas has been in the offshore wind market since its beginning and is therefore one of the most experienced in the field of supplying wind turbines. Vestas has installed around half of the world's offshore wind power plants, which naturally gives us exhaustive knowledge and a proven track record within this challenging environment. We are , so to say, a mature player in an immature market. |

3TIER is a global leader in renewable energy assessment and forecasting for wind, solar, and hydro projects of all sizes. Trusted by top developers, operators, and financiers around the world, 3TIER helps maximize the value of your renewable resources while mitigating the risks of their inherent variability. Using sophisticated computer modeling systems, in-house expertise, and reliable delivery mechanisms, the company provides the core data to forecast renewable energy’s short-term intermittency and long-term availability.
3TIER has pioneered a novel approach to offshore wind assessment. By combining numerical weather prediction (NWP) models with satellite observed wind fields, they have produced an optimized hybrid dataset, which enhances the offshore performance of mesoscale NWP models. The approach removes the bias of the NWP model, while retaining the benefits of fine spatial structure and hourly output. The improved accuracy of 3TIER’s methodology has helped clients worldwide make informed decisions about offshore wind development. |
