Short summary
On 7–9 January 2005 Storm Erwin passed across northern Europe, causing damage from Ireland to Russia, including power outages. Southern Sweden had the worst impacts with two nuclear stations shut-down and widespread destruction of transmission lines. For offshore wind energy in the North Sea, the storm was important to understand extreme environmental conditions for turbine operation. This work presents an analysis of North Sea tide gauge and wave data to assess extreme wave and surge levels.
