January 2012 - UK Leading international renewable energy consultancy group Natural Power has been awarded a contract to carry out an energy yield assessment and site classification study for the permitted 230MW Humber Gateway offshore wind farm project in the UK by international energy utility E.ON. The Round 2 wind farm, located 8km off the Holderness coast, East Riding of Yorkshire, is set to comprise 73 turbines. As part of the assessment, data from an on-site 90m tall mast will be used in combination with data from a meso-scale wind climate model and reference data to deliver a finance grade energy yield and uncertainty prediction.
