WINDINSPIRE First International Workshop on
“Wind Energy Intermittency: From Wind Farm Turbulence to Economic Management”
Danish Technical University, June 24, 25, 2013 Lyngby, Denmark
The first WINDINSPIRE international workshop was organized by Charles Meneveau, Johns Hopkins University, University, Baltimore, co-organized and hosted by the Jens N. Sørensen, at DTU Wind Energy. Approximately 50 persons, primarily representing USA, Spain, The Netherlands and Denmark were attending the workshop, which included 28 oral presentations and 13 poster presentations.
