Project Design

Designing a wind park for high performance is a balancing act. It involves matching the right turbine technology and layout to the grid constraints, terrain and wind climate of a site while ensuring accessibility (for roads and grid connection), limiting environmental impact, and optimizing economic performance.

We provide technical and financial guidance every step of the way, towards optimal performance.

Detailed Micrositing Services

  • Turbine selection (determination of the most appropriate and profitable turbine type according to site conditions, local wind climate, grid compatibility, IEC specs, market overviews and track-record analyses of suitable turbine alternatives)
  • Detailed farm layout for optimized profits and minimal maintenance
  • Annual Energy Yield optimization.

Environmental Impact Studies

Noise, shadowing, visual impact.

Internal Grid Design and Grid Connection

  • Grid layout and topology check or design for collector systems within wind farms or for sub-transmission connections between wind farms from both a technical and financial perspective
  • Component sizing (cables, transformers, switchgears…)
  • Compliance checks for reliability levels
  • Grid code and legal compliance checks.
