On Wednesday, October 2, at 12:00 pm MT, join NSF NCAR’s Research Applications Laboratory (RAL) for a talk by speaker David D. Turner from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (
NOAA).
In this
seminar, Dr. Turner will discuss the economic impact of improved day-ahead wind-energy forecasts realized by improvements to the High-Resolution Rapid Refresh (HRRR) weather prediction model. Dr. Turner will demonstrate that the newer HRRR model version, due to its more accurate forecasts, would save the energy community over $200M per year, and would provide over $100M per year savings for household income.
This event is part of the
RAL Seminar Series, which takes place every 2 weeks on Wednesday.
