Harnessing the Wind: The Future of Offshore Energy

Separate fact from fiction as our guests discuss global offshore wind development. Particular focus is on the European Union’s HIPERWIND project, which aims to significantly reduce the levelized cost of Energy of offshore wind farms through reductions in risk and uncertainty. This is achieved by incorporating uncertainty information throughout the entire wind turbine and wind farm modeling chain, from environmental conditions to reliability and energy costs.
Guests: Dr. Curtiss Fox, Senior Technical Leader, EPRI
