EPT-2 Sets the 100m Wind Accuracy Standard in Europe

1 / 5

EPT-2 beats ECMWF HRES on 100m wind speed accuracy across every lead time from 0–240 hours, verified against more than 10,000 European ground stations on StationBench with no post-processing applied.

2 / 5

EPT-2e, the ensemble variant, outperforms the 50-member ECMWF ENS mean on CRPS at virtually every lead time and delivers tighter probabilistic calibration for energy trading decisions.

3 / 5

The accuracy edge holds for both offshore and onshore sites, with the largest gains in complex terrain where EPT-2’s physics-constrained architecture captures orographic effects more reliably than traditional NWP.

4 / 5

Statistical post-processing cuts forecast error by 10–39 percent on top of EPT-2’s baseline, which converts into substantial annual P&L savings for multi-GW wind portfolios under European imbalance and hedging structures.
