WINDEY Facilitates the Successful Completion of Global Wind Farm Flow Control Project
Recently, the “Wind Farm Flow Control Joint Industry Project" (JIP), a milestone project for the global wind power sector led by DNV (Det Norske Veritas), has been successfully concluded, with authoritative results being released. This project brought together global top renewable energy tycoons and turbine manufacturers such as BP, EDF, RWE, Shell, Vattenfall, and EnBW, aiming to shatter the core bottlenecks in the intelligent control of wind farms.
As the core technology leader and a key driver in setting standards for the project, Windey Energy Technology Group (WINDEY), relying on its proprietary and global-leading WINDEY FLORIS wind farm control software, has deeply dominated the modelling, testing, and data analysis work in the core links of the project. In 2024, at the project’s technical summit held in Florence, Italy, WINDEY not only showcased its innovation achievements but also discussed the technological development path with global partners, demonstrating Chinese enterprises’ global leadership and indispensable contributions in the field of intelligent wind farm control.
Overcoming Industry Barriers, WINDEY Defines New Standards for Wind Farm Control Financing with Technology
Ditlev Engel, CEO of DNV Energy Systems, pointed out that there are three major global challenges for wind farm control technology, namely lack of verification, difficulties in financing, and unclear paths for large-scale production. The success of the JIP project has provided the industry with systematic evaluation methods and trustworthy empirical data.
The WINDEY FLORIS system of Windey Energy Technology Group, as one of the core verification technologies of the project, has had its excellent performance fully verified in simulation and field tests. Key project measured data (in 2025) show that deploying WINDEY FLORIS in high-density wind farms leads to a significant optimization potential, namely increase of the average annual power generation by over 3%. The real operation data has further confirmed the system’s strong ability to improve power generation efficiency and asset return rate, bringing higher investment value and financing attraction for global wind power projects and substantially promoting wind farm control technology to step into the “Era of Financing”.
Global Collaborative Innovation: WINDEY Sets an International Benchmark for Chinese Technologies
The Windey European Wind Energy Research Centre, as the core technical support engine of the project, has taken the lead in tackling key technology modules that is globally promising, such as wake modelling, coordinated control of wind turbine clusters, and flexible dispatching. Han Tao, director of the research institute, emphasized: "As the only core participant from China in the JIP project, WINDEY deeply got involved in the project and contributed key technologies, marking the high recognition of the international community for China's leadership in wind power technology. We are committed to continuously leading the innovation in intelligent wind farm control technology, and working with global partners to jointly shape the future of green energy."
Windey Energy Technology Group resolutely practices the “Innovation-driven, Global Collaboration” notion. Its core technologies have been widely applied in key wind power projects worldwide, making it build an advantage across the entire industrial chain covering intelligent control, high-end equipment, new energy EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction), energy storage, and comprehensive energy services. WINDEY FLORIS is not only the core competitiveness of WINDEY, but has also become a widely-accepted Chinese technology business card in the global wind power intelligence sector.
Empowering the Global Market, WINDEY Paradigm Leads Green Finance and International Cooperation
The core results of the JIP project have been adopted by multiple international top financial institutions and wind power developers, providing a quantified and verifiable authoritative path for project benefit assessment and greatly bringing down investment uncertainties.
As the main technical contributor to the project, the key field control algorithms and evaluation models promoted by WINDEY have not only resolved the headaches in the industry but successfully exported a reproducible "Chinese Paradigm". This paradigm has provided strong support and a successful template for Chinese wind power enterprises to deeply get involved in international project financing, technical standard output, and global implementation of projects.
Looking ahead, Windey Energy Technology Group will keep deepening its cooperation with global strategic partners such as DNV and EDF, and expedite the commercialization, standardization, and globalization of intelligent wind farm control technology. With continuous investment in innovation and global integration of resources, WINDEY is committed to contributing the exemplary "Chinese Wisdom" and "WINDEY Solutions" to the development of the global wind power industry towards higher efficiency, lower cost, stronger resilience, and better financing, and shoring up its core position as the global leader in wind farm control technology.
