Objectives:

Compile and process necessary climate data (seasonal forecasts as well as climate change scenarios) to be used in WP3 impact models and maintain the operational data flow.

Description of Activities:

This work package aims to define and prepare the climate data required as input data for the Clim2Power climate service, including down-scaling of seasonal forecasts, bias correction, data management & compatibility, and long term climate projections.

Expected Results and Deliverables:

• D2.1 “Toy” Data Set
• D2.2 Statistically down scaled time series of climate data from global seasonal forecasts (ensemble)
• D2.3 Tailored data set of climate change scenarios
• D2.4 Evaluation report on the quality of down scaled data
• D2.5 Operational Workflow of data provision
• D2.6 Report on the functionality and performance of the new method including bias correction methodology
• D2.7 Evaluation report on the selection and processing requirements of long term climate data for modelling the provision of energy from RES
