概要

Garrad Hassan and Partners has conducted an investigation into how operational wind farms have performed in terms of availability. This paper outlines some of its key results.<BR>The investigation used Garrad Hassan's experience over the past decade assessing the performance of over 14, 000 MW of operating wind farms which is approximately 15 % of the total worldwide installed capacity.<BR>Garrad Hassan has gathered together significant information on the performance of wind farms when conducting analyses on behalf of lenders, owners and other parties. With this information, the authors created a database which consists of over 1000 wind farm years of availability statistics with all major turbine manufacturers represented in the dataset. The availability information covers more than 250 wind farms across Europe, US and Asia with periods of operation ranging from 1 year up to 15 years. It is this database that has been used and referenced in this paper to draw relevant observations and conclusions.
