Case StudiesReferences & Success Stories
EMD selected for key wind assessments
EMD was selected by Energinet to deliver wind assessments for the Hesselø South and Kattegat offshore wind areas, supporting Denmark’s goal of 9 GW offshore wind by 2030. The reports build on EMD's experience with multiple Danish offshore site conditions assessments.
SOLARX EU project
The SOLARX EU project aims to demonstrate synergetic production of electricity, heat, and hydrogen from high-concentration solar technologies. EMD contributes by assessing economic potential and implementing SOLARX plant models in energyPRO, enabling future developers to consider such systems.
Renewable project with limited grid connection
This case study examines a 100 MW wind farm with a grid export limit, using energyPRO to optimise the addition of 36 MW solar PV and a 220 MWh BESS. The optimised system increased renewable utilisation, reduced curtailment, and significantly improved net present value.
Case Study 1: Constrained Layout, 20-Year Lifetime
This case study uses windPRO’s Lifetime Optimizer to evaluate an onshore wind project with 11 turbines in a constrained layout. Optimised curtailment delivered a net +13.6% energy gain over the 20-year lifetime by preventing a combined fatigue shortfall of 28.5 years.
Case Study 2: Existing turbines with limited life left - can new turbines still be approved?
This case study applies windPRO’s Lifetime Optimizer to a project where neighbouring turbines had low design classes, with one turbine's fatigue life dropping to 7.1 years due to wakes. The optimised curtailment scheme was simplified to just 15 rules, enabling project approval at an additional 2.5% AEP loss.
