Title: Site Identification Analysis for AWE Devices. A case study in Germany
Affiliation: MegaAWE project
As part of the MegaAWE project (supported by Interreg North-Western Europe), a site identification analysis for AWE devices was carried out following a technology-agnostic approach, using Germany as a case study. Several technological, geographical, environmental, and political criteria were defined and a thorough analysis using GIS tools was carried out to identify the suitable areas for the deployment of this technology under different scenarios. Three case studies were applied to the width of the risk buffer, the operational radius and the distance from the ground station to forests.
I am seeing for the first time this technology.
