SCADA-driven operational diagnostics

ventodyne provides wind farm performance analyses independent of wake steering, leveraging tools and expertise originally developed for wake steering control and analysis.​​

windalytics Alignment

windalytics Alignment is a fast, standardized SCADA-based check to identify hidden underperformance and common calibration issues—turbine by turbine—without installing additional measurement equipment.

​​

​What we do:

  • Detect underperformance while accounting for wind-farm effects (e.g., wakes)

  • Check wind vane and yaw calibration, identifying offsets and drifts, and providing correction values where possible.​

  • Pinpoint when suboptimal operation likely started, enabling targeted follow-up and root-cause analysis.​

​

What we need:

  • Wind farm layout and turbine specs (for context and modeling/interpretation).​

  • Historical SCADA data export (standard channels are sufficient).

​

What our clients get:

  • A clear “calibrated vs. not” assessment with a prioritized list of turbines to address first.​

  • Actionable guidance for operational parameter adjustments or calibration actions based on SCADA evidence.​

  • A concise diagnostic report plus a discussion to align on next steps (OEM ticket, onsite recalibration, or deeper analysis)

​​

windalytics Custom

windalytics Custom is our bespoke, data- and model-driven deep dive, when the question is specific and the answer requires more than a standardized check.

​​

​What it is:

  • Client-specific analyses combining historical SCADA with wind-farm modeling to produce a structured and defensible answer.​

  • A jointly defined approach: ventodyne proposes a method, aligns it with you, then executes and documents the results.

​​​

What our clients can use it for (examples):

  • Wake-loss evaluation (including neighboring-park impacts) and comparison to EYA expectations.​

  • Long-term performance deterioration assessment and attribution (separating likely drivers and quantifying trends).​

  • Historical wind condition assessment (e.g., for repowering context).

  • Uplift verification: quantify energy gain after operational changes and validate the impact with a robust method.

​

What our clients get:

  • A clear analysis plan (before significant internal time is spent), documented assumptions, and results that can defended internally and externally.​

  • Optional follow-on recommendations for operational actions or additional validation steps if uncertainty remains.​
