The windpowerlib is designed to calculate feedin time series of wind power plants. The windpowerlib is an out-take from the feedinlib (windpower and pv) to build up a community concentrating on wind power models.

The windpowerlib is ready to use but may have some teething troubles. The used model is still very simple but we found some new contributors and the windpowerlib will improve soon. If you are interested in wind models and want to improve the existing model, publish an alternative model or extend it to wind farms do not hesitate to contact us.

Having weather data sets you can use the windpowerlib to calculate the electrical output of common wind power plants. Basic parameters for many manufacturers are provided with the library so that you can start directly using one of these parameter sets. Of course you are free to add your own parameter set.
