Wind Power and Revenue Predictions – Application Features

The WinCAST application includes the features of the WinDATA® tool (Active alarm notifications, Technical indicators, Production monitoring...) along with additional production and revenue forecasting functionalities:

Integration and optimization of weather forecast models (Meteo Arome, Nasa Weather, ...)

Detailed hourly production per turbine and for the entire wind farm, for D+2 and D+7

Integration of market price data (day-ahead, auctions, ...)

Intuitive visualization of the future production profile

Simulation of revenue loss due to maintenance operations

Wind CAT Hourly Wind Power Forecasting Software

An Essential Decision-Support Tool

Maintenance tasks, electricity grid injection schedules, and wholesale transactions are heavily influenced by anticipated spot prices and expected production.

The WinCAST® module bridges the gap between wind turbine production forecasts and commitments related to upcoming maintenance, wholesale transactions, injection nominations, and balancing strategies.

It enables intelligent scheduling of interventions, anticipation of negative spot prices, and informed decision-making regarding turbine interventions or shutdowns.

How Does WinCAST® Work?

WinCAST® processes turbine data, external wind forecast data, and uses algorithms and trained neural networks based on historical alarms and underperformance events. With WinCAST, you gain access to power curve estimations and production predictions for up to 72 hours, accompanied by a comprehensive set of indicators designed to enhance your maintenance operations and decision-making.

For advanced users, WinCAST® may at any time be expanded to integrates a lot of elaborated tools based on the most recent innovations. And depending on your own existing data, we can add scripts to create customised module and optimise you future performance.
