How do we work?
Check out the quality of the work we did here.
Tools:
- In-house tools for wind data validation and statistical analysis as well as generic reporting;
- In-house tools for uncertainty assessment;
- WAsP, openWind, WindFarm, WindSim – tools used for wind farm design;
- Didger, Surfer, MicroStation PowerDraft – GIS tools.
Supplementary data sources:
- ERA-Interim, NCEP CFSR, NASA MERRA, NCEP NCAR, in-house resources – for accurate wind climate predictions;
- CORINE Land Cover – terrain roughness database;
- Geoportal, CODGiK – maps.
