Short summary
This study examines how a newly built offshore wind farm affects the power production of nearby existing wind farms. Using a full year of simulations, we compare detailed weather-based models with faster simplified models. The results show clear differences in predicted power losses, especially during calm summer conditions, highlighting the importance of model choice for future offshore wind farm planning and design.
