Industry standards and turbine supply contracts provide guidance to perform these verifications but with the potential for wide ranges of uncertainty. This course will cover step by step the process for power performance verification with a focus on reducing uncertainty through the application of best practices.
Additional information:
The course will explain the principles, process and value of power performance verification. From turbine supply contract negotiation through completion of power performance verification, there are many opportunities to reduce the risk associated with wind turbine performance. Trends will be presented and guidance provided for what to expect at all stages including:
- Contract negotiation
- Site evaluation
- Measurement system design
- Data processing and interpretation - including case studies
- Documentation of results
The course allows attendees to benefit from DNV GL’s extensive experience performing power performance verifications across the globe.
On completion, delegates should understand the value of power performance verification, how the process works and how to minimize the risk. Specifically: how to set the stage during contract negotiation for a successful campaign; what factors most influence the wind speed measurement and how to design for the lowest uncertainty; how the results can be interpreted and leveraged.
