Embodiment Construction

[0013] The present invention will now be described with reference to exemplary embodiments which are provided to aid in the understanding of the teachings of the invention, but it should be understood that the invention is not to be construed as limited to these exemplary embodiments in any way.

[0014] figure 1 is a diagram of a computer architecture useful in implementing the teachings of the present invention. Such an architecture 100 includes a first data store 110 configured to store data representing meteorological conditions at a reference location 111 and a second data store 115 configured to To store data representing the weather conditions at the test location 116 . Typically, the information stored in the first data store will represent a longer or longer duration than the information stored in the second data store. Each reference and test location is geographically remote from each other, and its respective data repository may be co-located at its location, or ...

Abstract

A method and apparatus for providing wind farm electricity production values is described. Such an arrangement is useful in providing an indication of potential electricity production values from a test site where there is limited meteorological data available. By associating the test site with a reference site for which there is extended data available, it is possible to utilize the data from the reference site to provide an estimate of future wind conditions and hence the potential wind resource that can be utilized in the production of electricity from that site.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to wind farms and in particular to an apparatus and method for determining the potential electricity production available from a wind farm. Background technique [0002] When choosing a particular geographic location for locating a wind farm, it is important that the meteorological conditions at that location will accommodate the location of the wind turbines - a wind resource of suitable quality must be present to ensure that the located farm provides a reasonable output. Merely exposing the location to the wind is not enough, making the wind reasonably predictable is also useful. Unfortunately, information about historical wind resources is not always available, thus requiring constrained resource monitoring as an indication of possible future behaviour. [0003] One solution to this problem is to compare short-term measured weather data from the location with data from regional weather stations, which have longer-term ...
