6 Method E: Newly developed model Model developed by KVT in partnership with the University of Oslo (UiO) and Statkraft. The project was financed by the Norwegian Research Council (50 %), Statkraft (40 %), and KVT (10 %) Simulates the production of each turbine of a wind farm in the time domain, including density correction and wake modeling in the time domain (1 h resolution) Has been validated against data from the Norwegian wind farms Smøla and Kjøllefjord owned by Statkraft 6

7 Normalized Wake Reduced Gross AEP Comparison of the methods Wind farm 1 First 6 months of operation not included in the calculation Deviation of up to 8 % between the methods based on 2.5 y data Normalized by the average Wake Reduced Gross for max nr of months Nr of operational months after the first 6 months of operation
