Radar@Sea
Solution type: in Development phase
Given the goals of 50% of electricity production being generated as wind energy and typically from large offshore wind farms in 2025, Denmark needs more exact forecasts – especially forecasts looking five minutes and a few hours ahead. LAWR radars can detect incoming fronts and their movements up to 60 km away and update the wind forecasts correspondingly.
