Vestas Power Performance Optimisation (PPO) – Independent Validation results

Are optimization measures for wind power plants, such as Vestas Power Performance Optimisation (PPO), worth the money? And if so, how high is the effective power increase of the WTG after the optimization? These are questions important to our customers, since the pricing for the optimization measurement is typically directly related to the success of […]

Artificial intelligence at Hemse

Since June 2021, we are using artificial intelligence (machine learning with neural networks) to analyse optimization measures in existing international wind portfolios. This enables us to simulate wind farm operation with and without optimization measures under the same wind conditions. Thus, we are now able to offer four different, independent validation methods for wind energy […]

Aerodynamic Upgrades with Vortex Generators and Gurney Flaps: Validation

Waila AB is preparing an independent analysis of the yield impact of aerodynamic upgrades with vortex generators and gurney flaps on Vestas V90 wind turbines for a German municipal utility group. In order to be able to assess the success of aerodynamic upgrades, a filtering and scaling of the scada data of the WTG is […]

Waila accompanies biochar test in biogas plant

This May, a comprehensive test on the use of biochar for the fermentation of maize silage will be started in a biogas plant with a rated output of 2.4 MW(el) in Nordrhein-Westfalen (Germany). An increase in biogas production of more than 5% can be achieved by adding biochar to the fermentation substrate. This has been […]

Biochar Map for Gotland

Within the LEADER Gute Project “E-kol-ogiskt! – a demonstration project for the application of biochar on Gotland”, Waila AB is examining the utilization potential for biochar on the Swedish island of Gotland. In a sub-project, the total arable land area of Gotland has been examined with help of a GIS analysis. For this purpose, data […]

Waila supports Danish turbine operator with wind energy optimization

“We are happy that our Danish wind energy partner has decided to invest in the technical optimization of the turbine operation to increase both electricity yield and revenues” notifies Waila AB. “We provide the necessary time and know-how to realize effective and very profitable investments in existing wind turbines“. Waila has built the necessary trust […]
