Short summary
This work compared parameterizations used in mesoscale models to estimate wind energy production against operational data from several offshore sites. Results showed differences of about 5%, with higher resolution reducing generated power due to stronger wakes. One approach best reproduced key aspects of wind farm performance. Overall, results underline known limitations but confirm that these models are useful for estimating wind farm performance.
