Industry Performance


Learning Objectives:
Several industry leading consultants will present their views on the accuracy of preconstruction energy estimates, how US wind projects have performed vs estimates, how the estimates have changed over time, and key improvements they’ve made along with remaining issues and concerns.   

The session will specifically look at the underperformance bias issue identified in prior years, and if the situation has been improved or resolved. Key factors in the shortfall, and remaining areas of concern will be discussed. Owner operator representatives will join the panel discussion to provide alternative perspectives on the presentations and topic.

Industry Standards Survey


The aim of the session is to gain insight into decisions and technical considerations faced by wind resource assessment experts when designing meteorological campaigns and wind farms. In an effort to gain perspective on industry practices, a diverse panel of experts will share their reactions to a survey of industry professionals regarding factors affecting the design of wind resource assessment campaigns and the optimization of wind turbine layouts. Moreover, results will be presented from a comprehensive GIS-based review of existing wind turbine setbacks from roads. The session's unique format presents attendees with visual data and evidence summarizing industry practices. Attendees will have a an opportunity to interact with panellists and share their reactions.

Suitability and Power Performance of Wind Turbines


Learning objectives:
Leading industry professionals discuss the validity of modern turbine power curves and recent trends in turbine suitability. What needs to be considered when contemplating the rapidly evolving turbine landscape? How are turbines performing compared to their sales power curves? How can you tell if your turbines are performing as they should? What turbine is best suited for your site?

Remote Sensing:Toys or Tools



Learning Objectives:
The industry has been using remote sensing devices for a number of years but the question still remains unanswered: are they just toys for the academic or tools for the engineer. Have we become too reliant on conventional cup based anemometers to realise the potential these devices can offer in terms of:
 

  • Improving resource assessment accuracy at lower costs.
  • Advancing our knowledge of complex flows to reduce turbine lifecycle costs.
  • Reducing the uncertainty in wakes models.

 
This session will explore each of these areas and hopefully show that these devices can move from academia to engineering

Monetizing Resource Assessment Campaign Design

Uncertainty reduction is at the forefront of every wind analyst's mind when designing a resource assessment campaign. In this session, we will ask the industry a) how uncertainty is quantified and b) how that uncertainty translates into project value. We will then draw comparisons between WRA investment costs and project value, with the ultimate goal of calculating the return on investment for various improvements in the WRA campaign.

Networking Break
10:30 AM - 12:00 PM
Post-Construction Operational Feedback

Given the tighter-than-ever PPA market, high-volume of merger and acquisition activities and number of portfolio refinancing of operational projects in the US wind industry, there has rarely been a time where understanding and predicting the future performance of a project has been more critical.  This session seeks to provide attendees with a greater insight into post-construction energy yield analysis and how one can best leverage and utilize the data available from an operational project for future decision making.

Networking  Lunch
1:30 PM - 3:00 PM
Atmospheric Variability (Open)

 

This session addresses how wind resource analysts can recognize and minimize risk due to the numerous ways atmospheric variability can affect wind resources. We will discuss:

•       Data collection for wind resource assessment and turbine suitability assessments: are there times when collection of 1 Hz wind data has advantages over 10-minute average data? If so, when?

•       Atmospheric datasets for wind resource assessment: how do newer atmospheric reanalysis datasets compare to each other and to the standard NCEP/ NCAR Reanalysis Project (NNRP) dataset?

•       Generating dynamically downscaled long-term wind resource datasets: are there new approaches exploiting recent advances in atmospheric science?

•       Climate variability: how does seasonal variability in wind resources affect energy production, and are there practical techniques to design wind turbine layouts to maximize energy production and reduce wake impacts?

3:00 PM - 3:30 PM
Networking Break
3:30 PM - 5:00 PM
Flow Modeling

 

The session on flow modeling will explore several advanced computational techniques for capturing the nuances of flow across terrain where stability and other thermal effects cause difficulty for traditional linearized flow models.  The speakers will each explain the challenges of applying their particular modeling approach to help understand flow features seen in measured site data.  

They will examine projects in areas as diverse as the Great Plains, Chile, and the Eastern Rockies where measurements have provided puzzling features that can best be understood and explained by using a more sophisticated approach than those traditionally used.   The speakers will present a description of the site measurements, their modeling approach, plus a synopsis of how their approach was used to make sense of the site data and by aiding the understanding of the measurements improve the overall prediction of the wind resource.
