VPE – Wind resource assessment

Services and Activities for the wind sector certified ISO 9001

Simulations of the wind field using mathematical models to estimate the energy potential of a site and determining the producibility of a wind farm.

In the wind resource assessment, Tecnogaia uses internal data and information, the knowledge of the Italian windiness regime, methodologies and computation models congealed internationally. Particularly, when using the computation model WAsP, avails itself of staff certified by RISØ National Laboratory.

WIND RESOURCE ASSESSMENT

WIND SITE EVALUATION

  • Inspection on site
  • Preliminary feasibility evaluation and elaboration of the layout of the wind farm
  • Detailed wind map of the territory (1:50000-scale map) at hub height
  • Preliminary map of windiness of the wind farm at hub height
  • Preliminary layout of the wind farm

WIND FARM EXPECTED ENERGY PRODUCTION ASSESSMENT

  • On-site layout and verification of the monitoring
  • 3D model of the area
  • Micrositing studies
  • Assessment of the expected energy production of a wind farm
  • Layout optimization
  • Assessement of the expected energy production with indices of probability
