Abstract: The goal of this article is to apply the regional atmospheric numerical weather prediction – the Eta model, improved by the new proposed MOS (Model Output Statistics) method and to describe its performance in validation of the wind forecasts for wind power plants. The Eta model has been compared against the wind from tower observations at a number of levels (10, 38, 54, 75, 96 and 145 m), with a total number of 15984 pairs of forecast and observed winds.
