This study explores mesoscale wind power modelling over Europe, analyzing correlations and spatial smoothing effects for onshore and offshore wind power. The findings suggest potential spatial smoothing effects and the importance of an On+Offshore SuperGrid for large-scale wind power integration.

Conclusions • Meso-scale simulations exhibit stronger variability of regional power than former studies using only global-scale analysis • Large-scale wind power integration (e.g. 80%) will be much easier with an On+Offshore SuperGrid to smooth variability www.OffshoreGrid.eu www.SafeWind.eu jens.tambke@forwind.de
