Why Smart Energy's WindVision™

WindVision™ eliminates the risks associated with Renewable Energy Generation from construction up through operations. Investors looking for site verification now have the ability to ingest their tower data into our system and monitor production output in real time. With the amount of weather data we provide, our construction forecasts eliminate costly errors associated with weather phenomenon. O&M providers now have a forecasting system that will accurately depict the most effective time to perform maintenance. Therefore eliminating turbine downtime, while increasing your operations and your capacity factor.

Utilities that incorporate wind power take on the added stress of predicting its variability. If the contributions from wind power are not taken into account when producing the day-ahead market schedule, then conventionally fueled generators may be used inefficiently when wind energy is added to the system. Indeed, the economic gains reported from WindVision™ are savings to other generators and to retail electric customers due to more efficient dispatch, saved fuel and lower O&M costs. You can now effectively identify the additional reserves needed to maintain system reliability, as well as the congestion points that need to be relieved. Utilizing WindVision™, your facility now has the ability to integrate larger amounts of wind power, to minimize the operating impacts of wind power, and utilize critical information to maintain grid reliability. Help minimize the costs of integrating more wind power.

For Energy Traders, WindVision™ forecasts are revolutionary. Accurately monitor weather conditions for each and every wind generating facility in the country. Energy Traders now have the ability to monitor fronts as they move across the country and how these events will impact the future energy markets. WindVision™ speaks for itself once implemented, numbers speak and with WindVision's™ Energy Trader application the numbers will be way up!
