The more accurate the predictions of energy generation from wind farms, the less uncertainty in the level of wind energy that will be available to the grid.
Ireland’s National Centre for Applied Data Analytics & AI (CeADAR) has developed a new system which utilises artificial intelligence to accurately predict the amount of renewable energy that will be produced at wind farms.
While wind energy potential can be easily calculated, accurately predicting the actual amount of energy generated from wind farms is challenging, largely due to weather uncertainties.
This new AI tool uses data from the historical operation of existing wind farms and combines it with forecasts to predict wind energy production a day ahead of the energy being generated.
