Who should attend?
The course is aimed at experienced windPRO users who want to gain advanced expertise in analysing SCADA and operational data from wind turbines.
Prerequisites
BASIS and EYA courses, or experienced users with a good understanding of and experience in the: BASIS module (UI, object details, object layers, etc.), importing wind data in the Meteo object, and time-varying energy calculations in windPRO.
What you will learn
- Analyse SCADA data: import production data, error codes, and wind data into windPRO, to analyse and understand the performance of the wind turbines
- Substitute missing/erroneous data using the TR10 methodology to create as complete a time series as possible for the assessment
- Evaluate lost production and losses using error codes: Quantify how much energy has been lost by using error codes and compare the actual and potential production
- Calculate the expected future yield: Project the actual production and losses into the future through a post-construction energy yield assessment (PCYA)
- Calibrate wind models: Lowering the uncertainty for repowering projects or developing new neighbouring projects by using actual production data to calibrate the wind model
