Wind and solar power monitoring power generation manufacturers

How smart is a wind power plant?

In practice, a wind power plant or a PV plant includes multiple smart energy technologies, and some are more integrated into the actual power production than others. The years studied in this paper only represent the beginning of the energy transition towards cleaner energy production.

Which countries are driving digitalisation in wind power & solar PV?

Digitalisation in wind power and solar PV has been driven by the US, Germany, Denmark and Japan. Smart energy transition includes a widespread deployment of clean energy technologies and intelligent energy management with information and communication technologies (ICTs).

What are wind power technology sub-fields?

The wind power technology sub-fields are wind turbines (which cover the inventions related to wind turbine technologies), wind conversion (which covers the inventions related to power conversion in wind power technologies) and wind energy (which covers all of the wind power inventions that do not fall under turbines or conversion technologies).

Is Siemens a good wind power company?

A more than 175-year-old technology company which played a major role in the early years of electricity, Siemens’ wind power offering is extensive. The company established the world’s first offshore wind power plant in 1991 and continues to be a large player in both the onshore and offshore spaces.

Why are solar photovoltaic and wind power used as case studies?

Solar photovoltaic (PV) and wind power are used as case studies of RES technologies. These technologies were chosen because their capacity and importance in the energy markets is increasing rapidly [ 1 ].

Does Siemens have an offshore wind power plant?

The company established the world’s first offshore wind power plant in 1991 and continues to be a large player in both the onshore and offshore spaces. As a market leader in connecting offshore wind to the grid, Siemens has 6.5GW connected to date and a further 4.5GW under construction.
