What is it about?

Forecast accuracy can be improved because 1) the existing errors are not purely random and 2) the wind energy forecasts do not fully take into account the information contained in the meteorological forecasts

Why is it important?

Wind energy will not achieve its potential unless the predictability of wind energy generation is improved

Perspectives

Other researchers have claimed that wind energy is highly predictable using existing forecast methods. This claim is based on the use of a highly questionable metric of forecast accuracy. Fortunately, the method presented in this paper can improve matters
