Wind power management system and method
First Claim
1. A wind power management system for monitoring, a group of wind turbine generator parks, comprising:
- a plurality of SCADA systems each including a SCADA server for collecting wind turbine generator data in real time for each park and for calculating individual process data reports based thereon;
a real-time wind power portfolio manager for monitoring, controlling, maintaining, analyzing and benchmarking performances of wind turbines generators situated in wind parks in real time and on demand for the life of the projects;
said manager having a reporting module for generating profile reports for the performance of the wind turbine generators;
a portfolio manager server for providing said profile reports on-line regarding the wind turbine generators; and
said profile manager server for receiving and storing the real-time data and the individual process data reports from each SCADA server to enable said profile reports to be based on the history of the project for each one of the parks.

Abstract
According to certain disclosed embodiments of the invention, there is provided a wind power management system to monitor performance of wind turbine generators situated in wind farms, each having a number of wind turbine generators. A real-time wind power portfolio manager receives and stores in real-time data being produced by the wind turbine generator parks. The manager has a reporting module for generating profile reports for the performance of the wind turbine generators. The manager has a server to provide the reports on-line regarding the wind turbine generators. The server stores the real-time data to enable the reports to be based on the history of the project for each one of the parks.
