Short summary
This research presents the first use of the simplified metastatistical extreme value approach for wind extremes, extending it to wind energy applications. We use a categorical framework that combines climate, roughness, and topography to evaluate convection-permitted models. We find that model formulation drives inter-model uncertainties, rather than surface conditions. Convection-permitted models' uncertainty analysis improves the reliability of extreme wind estimates for design parameters.
