2nd Participation agreement for Turbine Type C) signed!
By ptp on 7. October 2019Read moreGENERG and ROMO Wind signed an agreement concerning the participation of one of GENERG’s wind farms in the Performance Transparency Project (PTP). 10 iSpin systems will be installed at Vestas V90-3MW turbines in a complex terrain site located in Portugal.
First turbine type C wind park equipped with iSpin systems
By ptp on 17. June 2019Read moreFinally, we managed to identify the 3rd turbine type to be the Vestas V90-3MW. For this turbine type we found sites with suitable met masts and located in different terrain. In May and June 2019 a flat terrain wind farm with this turbine type has been equipped with 8 iSpin systems. All V90-3MW turbines within the PTP will be...
PTP Participation agreement for 1st turbine type C site signed!
By ptp on 10. May 2019Read moreFinally we have the 3rd turbine type on board! EDF and ROMO Wind signed an agreement concerning the participation of one of EDF’s wind farms in the Performance Transparency Project (PTP). 8 iSpin systems will be installed at Vestas V90-3MW turbines in a flat terrain site located in France.
iSpin Version 4 systems being calibrated in Wind tunnel for installation at Type C wind turbines
By ptp on 5. April 2019Read moreWind tunnel calibration for 102 iSpin Version 4 sensors showed very low spread (standard deviation) for gain, offset and correlation in relation to wind tunnel wind speeds! In relation to iSpin V3 sensors the measured spread of the iSpin V4 Gain values is only 50% of iSpin V3 Gain values! In relation to V3 sensors the measured spread of...
Performance Transparency Project extended to Q3/2020
By ptp on 28. March 2019Read moreROMO Wind applied for a time wise project extension to end of Q3/2020 which was accepted by EUDP. The time wise extension was necessary because of late availability of combined reference / iSpin measurements and subsequently late start of data evaluation. Furthermore it was seen beneficial by DTU and the involved 3rd party consultants to extend the evaluation of...

A Practical Approach for Wind Park Performance Warranties (Poster at AWEA Offshore Windpower 2018 in Washington, DC, USA)
By ptp on 18. October 2018Read moreThe wind industry suffers from the fact that the performance of wind turbines is difficult to measure and assess. The complexity and variability of the wind resource, which is the input parameter to the energy conversion equation poses such difficulties, that so far it has only be possible to determine the performance of wind turbines by means of power...
