Course Overview
Do you want to gain the skills to rigorously quantify and report uncertainty in wind resource assessments for industrial applications? This course guides you through the fundamentals of uncertainty quantification (UQ) and its practical applications in wind resource assessment and site assessment, aligning with the latest IEC 61400-15 standard and the requirements of wind project financing. You will learn to classify sources of uncertainty, apply core mathematical concepts, calculate essential statistics, and effectively communicate uncertainty in professional wind assessment reports. By the end of the course, you’ll be equipped to deliver robust, transparent, and finance-ready uncertainty analyses for wind energy projects.
