TÜV SÜD has announced that it has won the contract for wind condition analysis and annual energy production (AEP) assessment services for the next phase of an offshore wind farm project off the south-west coast of South Korea, developed by Korea Offshore Wind Power Corp.
The second stage of the project will have a capacity of 400 MW. Data is collected around the wind farm site over a period of at least one year. The results of this analysis are used to evaluate whether the designs of the wind turbines, sub-structures and other structures to be installed at the wind farm are suitable for the specific conditions at the site. For the AEP assessment, TÜV SÜD will use the analysed wind condition data to evaluate the layout of the wind farm and its estimated annual energy production during operation.
