The study on prediction of power generation of offshore wind farm of western and southern coast utilizing offshore buoy meteorological observations data

Given the massive early investment needed for the construction of large offshore wind farms, the ROI (return of investment), which can guarantee sufficient profitability, should be secured in advance. The highest priority in terms of determining profitability is to estimate the power production volume of an offshore wind farm based on surveyed wind resources. The maritime measurement of wind resources in Korea has only been performed at one point in the water off the coast of Wido. And the measurements released by the Korea Meteorological Administration were used, as there are no available long-term measurements for other areas.
