Openwind

What is Openwind?

Determine the best layout that balances energy production with construction costs using AWST's unique energy cost optimization module

Deep Wake Wake modules are more accurate than the main competing modules and are essential for estimating wakefulness losses in utility-scale wind farms

Software developed with more than 30 years of consulting experience ensures the trust of financial institutions

Compatibility with other wind software enables continuous file sharing and easy migration of existing procedures

Maximize energy optimization

• Cost of energy optimization
• Turbine layers with grid
• Reduced and quantified uncertainty
• Multi-design turbine layout option

Minimize power loss

• Deep matrix activation models (DAWM) and standard activation models
• Time series energy capture
• Directional cutting, flow angle, turbulence
• Non-optimal performance losses

Environmental Management
