Abstract
An online course in wind energy resource assessment has been developed by the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). The course builds upon a successful physical course, which the Department of Wind Energy at DTU has offered to the wind energy industry for more than 20 years. The course objectives are:
1. To teach participants to use the Wind Atlas Analysis and Application Program (WAsP)
2. To provide participants with enough theory about wind power meteorology to avoid the major pitfalls related to wind resource assessment.
WAsP is the wind power industry-standard PC-software for wind resource assessment and siting of wind turbines and wind farms, with more than 4,000 licenses sold in more than 100 countries.
