This Lecture Series on “Multidisciplinary simulations of wind farms in complex environments” is part of the H2020 Zephyr project. It will be followed by a one-day Zephyr Final Public Workshop entitled "Large-scale wind turbines complex terrain effect and urban wind energy: application cases". The Early Stage Researchers will present the results of their research done in the framework of this project.
This is the registration page for the FREE Zephyr Final Public Workshop on Large-scale wind turbines complex terrain effect and urban wind energy: application cases. If you wish to register to the lecture series, please register here.
The workshop will take place on 21 September at the Bluepoint Conference Center, Boulevard August Reyers 80, 1030 Brussels. The on-site participation is only available for the participants to the lecture series and the members of the Zephyr Project. For the other participants, the participation is online only.
To meet the growing need for environmentally friendly energy sources, nations and organisations around the world are searching for ways to produce as much energy as possible at lower costs. This makes wind energy popular but its performance hinges on location and positioning. The EU-funded zEPHYR project aims to create a platform that will allow for better consideration of where wind turbines should be deployed for maximum energy production. It plans to do that by implementing advanced meso/microscale atmospheric models and data on the impact of real terrain and local atmospheric models in the search for optimal wind turbine locations.
The Zephyr project (Towards a more efficient exploitation of on-shore and urban wind energy resources) has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 860101.
