Ponce de Leon, S., Bettencourt, J., Ringwood, J. and Benveniste, J. (2024), Evaluating the Synergy of Wind and Wave Energy in European Coastal Regions using Satellite Altimetry data, EGU General Assembly 2024, 14-19 March, Vienna, Austria
In this research, we present a comprehensive analysis of the combined potential of wind and wave energy across various European coastal locations. Our primary aim is to explore the viability of leveraging satellite altimetry for assessing the potential of wind and wave energy synergies on the European shelf. This exploration is driven by the premise that integrating wind and wave energy sources could significantly reduce the variability in energy supply. Our methodology employs the homogenized, multi-mission altimeter dataset provided by the European Space Agency's Sea State Climate Change Initiative (Sea_State_cci). This dataset spans 26 years, from January 1991 to December 2018, offering an extensive temporal and spatial coverage for estimating wind and wave power densities at various sites.
