PPT: Uncompromising accuracy, less time and costs Why PPT is essential for today’s wind farms Even a minor difference between estimated and actual energy output creates substantial financial impacts. While developers and operators expect, on actual wind farm conditions, to get the energy output promised by manufacturers, they can’t always know if they are succeeding without accurate Power Performance Testing (PPT). The wind turbine manufacturer commits on the Power Curve under standard conditions. As a real-world test to verify the turbine's power curve, PPT is a way to ensure the turbine performs as expected. It can also identify underperforming turbines and optimize the wind farm's performance. Download this expert guide to learn more.
