Yield analysis

Using advanced techniques to create bankable yield estimations

Specialists in analysis

Natural resource is the most fundamental factor in a successful sustainable energy project and all projects require the best estimations of resource to enable design, financing and optimal operation.

We analyze the energy resource available, either by helping you to establish a measurement campaign or using existing data to provide site suitability, feasibility and ‘bankable’ energy yield estimates (GWhr/year). 

Whether wind resource assessment or solar resource assessment, our specialists will give you an accurate picture of the natural resource at your site.

Getting yield analysis right

Quality assessment on site, Poland

To determine the performance of a project against expectations and to assist investors or vendors when project assets are being sold, we analyse and assess operating assets using a variety of industry-leading tools and techniques.  

K2 Management uses advanced numerical analysis including computational fluid dynamics (CFD), mesoscale modeling and in-house developed tools along with industry standard software to determine the probability of wind energy availability.

From this the financial, and design parameters can be set, and the asset selection, site layout optimization (micro-siting) can be done to further optimize the site for better energy yield and reduced uncertainty.

Our Key Services

Our specialists perform analysis and investigations on wind turbine noise and shadow flicker issues to help mitigate environmental risk and potential delays. Our key services identify, assess and analyze areas for potential energy projects and identify the representative climatic site conditions, both normal and extreme.  Take a look at some of our services:
