Power production and area usage of offshore wind and the relationship with available energy in the atmosphere
Fig 5
Results of Eq. 17 fitted to observed power densities.
Black dots represent observed power density and the red line the best fit of Eq. 17 to the data. a) Eq. 17 fitted to all data (27 data points). b) Eq. 17 fitted to data from wind farms with capacity larger than 100 MW (23 data points). Data from wind farms with capacity lower than 100 MW is shown by grey dots. c) Eq. 17 fitted to data from wind farms with capacity larger than 200 MW (18 data points). Data from wind farms with capacity lower than 200 MW are shown by grey dots. The dotted red lines in b) marks the upper and lower limit based on the uncertainty estimated by Eq 19.
