EMHIRES is the first publically available European wind power generation dataset derived from meteorological sources that is available up to NUTS-2 level. It was generated applying an innovative methodology capturing local geographical information to generate meteorologically derived wind power time series at high temporal and spatial resolution. This allows for a better understanding of the wind resource at the precise location of wind farms.
