摘要
Offshore wind energy harvesting is just starting in the US, with imminent offshore wind farms in Massachusetts, Maryland, and Rhode Island waters. With an ambitious goal of 10 GW of installed offshore capacity by 2020 set by the US Department of Energy (DOE), which has recently funded seven 'Advanced Technology Demonstration' offshore wind projects to help achieve that goal. Overviews of the latest findings in the three topics were given on the first day in the form of presentations, which were open to students and the general public. On the second day, the experts gathered in a workshop to identify research needs and provide recommendations for urgent action items. The few long-term meteorological observations off the East Coast are typically buoy-based, thereby restricting the altitude of wind measurements to a few meters above the surface.
