Uncertainty of Wind Power Production
Uncertainty of the annual energy production of wind parks is a key figure for the bankability of a wind energy project. Uncertainties are known as levels of exceedance or P-values. The estimation of uncertainties follows the rules of error propagation. Common assumptions considerably underestimate the level of exceedance and should be revised.
