Collaboration Opportunities• Renewable Resource Forecasting• CSIRO has built up significant critical mass in in climate and earthsystem science ensuring globally competitive capability in thisspace. We have extensive weather, climate and earth systemsimulation capability with our modelling rated world class by the2010 External Science Review panel.• CSIRO modeling capability is delivered through our proprietarymeso-scale model (called CCAM). CCAM is a global meso-scalemodel with a non-hydrostatic module and a stretchable grid, whichcan reach very high resolutions locally. This model is regularly usedfor regional climate simulations as well as for providing wind andsolar estimations.• Ongoing research in this area is focused on developing• reliable renewable resource forecasting:• Short term (minutes)• Medium term (up to 7 days)Source: CSIROAustralia – means opportunities
