Vortex FARM - Wind Resource Grid (WRG) Files

SHARE

The Vortex FARM product is a high-resolution map ready to use when the wind farm area is already selected, but not yet the turbine locations or their class. It has been developed to support AEP analysis, wind farm layout design, and site suitability impact studies, facilitating the decision-making process at the wind farm pre-construction stage. Vortex FARM includes long-term statistics at all heights within an area, plus high-resolution temperature, mean wind speed, extreme wind speed (Vref), and turbulence intensity maps, having the ability to be calibrated with measurements.
