Wind power project in Mutsu Ogawara port, Japan (forest + stability)

In collaboration with RERA Tech Inc., Meteodyn presents an in-depth CFD study conducted at the Mutsu-Ogawara Metocean Observation Center, the first Japanese offshore wind test site.

This webinar showcases how METEODYN WT was applied to evaluate wind resources in a coastal environment combining land–sea interactions, forest cover, and thermal stratification.
