particularly offshore the Galician coast, an area with a wind power flux resource of class 7, the highest in the wind power density scale. Similarly, the operat- ing hours map indicates economic feasibility in most regions which is guaranteed with 2300h/year at full capacity according to current European offshore tar- iffs. Aguçadoura showed to be the most energetic area throughout the Portuguese test sites with energy productions that can reach up to 8 GWh/year of elec- tricity equivalent to 4000 h/year of operating hours. In addition, the analysis of the wind relative fre- quency of occurrence show prevailing moderate and fresh breezes and allow concluding that 80% of the wind events occurred between 2009 and 2013 would produce energy throughout the years. Although this behavior is common for both regions, at the south- ern region of S. Pedro de Moel, a lower percentage of winds blow above the rated speed of 14 m/s hence gen- erating a lower percentage of energy. Also, from the inter-annual variation plots it can be observed that the deviation from the long term mean value is moderate yet leading to variations in the wind power production up to 30%. From the above statements it can be concluded that the WRF model is a consistent tool to obtain represen- tative wind data near the coastal areas showing good results when compared with in situ wind observations. Moreover, the Iberian large coastal line is a promising area for building facilities that allow harnessing energy from offshore winds efficiently.
