By 2010, Denmark’s capacity grew to 3.5 GW, when the new 209 MW Horns Rev 2 offshore wind farm was put in operation. In 2010, another wind off-shore farm, Rødsand-2, increased the nation’s wind capacity to 3.75 GW. And in 2014, the 400 MW Anholt wind farm, in addition to other smaller wind projects, brought the nation’s wind capacity to today’s level of 4.8 GW. Not bad for a country of nearly 6 million people.

For the model, we will use the parameters of the three wind farms Horns Rev 1,2More information: https://powerplants.vattenfall.com/horns-revDanTysk,3https://powerplants.vattenfall.com/dantysk and Sandbank.4https://powerplants.vattenfall.com/sandbank As each of these wind farms differs significantly in the used turbine types and grid layout, they will also have different losses and sensitivities with respect to the presented uncertainties. Because the wind farms are all closely positioned on a global scale, the same wind data will be used in each of the evaluations. The source of this wind data is the FINO35https://www.fino3.de/en/ met mast, positioned about 50 km southwest of Horns Rev, 2 km west from DanTysk, and 20 km east from Sandbank. We use all data recorded between January 2010 and December 2017 at a height of 100 meters.
