Discover the Autumn Update of energyPRO 4.9! We’re thrilled to announce the latest release of energyPRO 4.9. The spotlight feature: OPTIMIZE! With OPTIMIZE, you can now perform sizing optimization for energy conversion units and storage components within your model, empowering you to make more informed decisions. But that’s not all! We’ve added the ability to […]
ETH forest canopy heights – global coverage and high-resolution – now in windPRO! If you are analysing wind farms at forested sites in any part of the world, then a high-resolution canopy height dataset is now available: “Global Sentinel-2 10m Canopy Height (ETH Zurich)”. The dataset is created by a team of ETH researchers using […]
Over the last two years, EMD has been working on a new Solar PV module which is now ready in windPRO 3.4. In case you have never worked with solar farms before, don’t worry, the Solar PV module is straight forward to use: Digitize area to fill with panels Define panel characteristics (tilt angle, azimuth, […]
ERA5(T) in windPRO is a globally comprehensive reference wind dataset with minimal lag in time. Traditional reference datasets, such as ERA5, MERRA2 or ERA-Interim, are available with a lag to real-time of one to three months, which typically results in compromising the data quality and delaying decision making up to months. With the release of […]
We have made a new digital terrain model available that covers the entire Czech Republic. This model was produced using airborne laser scanning (LIDAR) data collected between 2009 and 2014. The data in windPRO is sourced from the Geoportal ČÚZK, operated by the Czech Land Survey Office. The model in windPRO is derived from an […]
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 […]
Many of our windPRO users are improving their modelling by integrating forest height data as input for the dedicated forest models in windPRO: that is within the displacement height calculator and the Objective Roughness Approach (ORA). Forest height data for parts of Norway – derived from the Norwegian SR16 Forest Map – is now available […]
