In 2016, 12% of the installed wind turbine capacity in Europe was older than 15 years. This share increases to 28% by 2020. Consequently, a significant number of wind turbines will reach the end of their planned service life in the near future. Lifetime extension is appealing in that it can increase returns on investment […]
In June 2019 EMD released the new pre-run EMD-WRF Europe+ mesoscale dataset based on ERA5 data (“EMD-EUR+”). See details and prices for EMD-EUR+ here. EMD has now published a report on the validation results for EMD-EUR+. Below a few highlights about EMD-EUR+ and the results in the report: EMD-EUR+ replaces EMD-ConWx, downscaled from ERA-Interim (discontinued […]
The “ALOS World 3D 30 m mesh (AW3D30)” dataset is a recent digital surface model (DSM) with global coverage. It is produced by JAXA – Japan’s Aerospace Exploration Agency. Now users of windPRO have direct access to the data in its 30m resolution version – along with its data-quality mask. AW3D30 was generated from data […]

Unlike solar and wind power, which rely on specific weather conditions, molten salt facilities can generate and store energy for up to 10 hours, operating at anytime. It is not a surprise that energyPRO allows for modelling various energy systems. It might come as news though, that we have recently designed a Molten Salt Storage […]
