Wind Energy
Wind Farm Capacity Factor Calculator
Calculate the capacity factor of a wind turbine or wind farm, the fraction of its theoretical maximum output that was actually delivered over a period. It is the single most important metric for comparing real-world wind project performance.

Wind Energy
Wind Farm Annual Energy Yield Calculator
Calculates the gross annual energy production (AEP) of a wind farm given fleet size, turbine capacity, capacity factor, and availability. Use it during project feasibility studies to size a farm and project revenue.
