How Wind PulseSense Generated $430,000 in Annual Revenue at a Wind Farm
A leading North American independent power producer wanted to identify and recover hidden performance losses at a 305 MW wind farm. The wind farm had been recently acquired by the IPP. Wind PulseSense analyzed high-frequency, event and 10-minute SCADA data without requiring additional hardware. The analysis identified four opportunities: Turbine-specific yaw misalignment that a previous sitewide LiDAR-based correction had not resolved Incorrect blade-pitch configurations Curt
Can you trust your wind analytics provider?
Can You Trust Your Wind Analytics Provider? Not all wind analytics deliver equally reliable results. The quality of an analytic depends on the data it uses, the domain expertise behind its development, and how thoroughly it has been validated under real operating conditions. This case study compares two approaches to detecting yaw misalignment: OpenOA, an open-source method using 10-minute SCADA data, and Wind PulseSense, which combines high-frequency SCADA data with physics-
Wind PulseSense unlocks $5,700/MW in additional revenue
A wind plant in Southeast Asia was producing below its pre-construction expectations, despite remaining under an OEM full-service agreement and warranty. Wind PulseSense analyzed the plant’s existing operating data to identify the causes of underperformance and recommend corrective actions without requiring additional hardware. The analysis uncovered three important issues: Significant static yaw misalignment on 27 of 30 turbines Unnecessary yaw-error shutdowns during lower w

What 10-Minute SCADA Data Hides—and What Seconds-Level Data Reveals
Ten-minute SCADA data has served the wind industry well for decades. It is compact, widely available and useful for monitoring production, availability and long-term performance trends. But a wind turbine does not operate in 10-minute increments. Wind conditions change from second to second. Turbine controllers continually adjust operating parameters in response. A great deal can happen during a 10-minute period—and much of that behavior disappears when the data is reduced to

Your Wind Turbine Is Running. But Is It Performing?
A turbine may be online, free of major alarms and technically available while still producing less power than it could. These losses can persist for months—or even years—without creating the type of obvious fault that triggers an urgent maintenance response. That is why wind asset performance must be evaluated through two complementary lenses: availability and energy performance.
