Advanced hybrid park assessment

Model co-located wind, solar and battery as one system from hourly energy yield to bankable revenue in minutes. One workflow, one financial picture, instead of stitching separate tools together at the end.

Core features

One model for the whole system

Wind, solar, storage and economics move together. Change a turbine, redraw a solar area or resize the battery, and every downstream result—energy, losses, dispatch, IRR—updates instantly.

Design wind, solar and battery in one environment

Place turbines, draw solar areas and add storage on the same site model, accounting for terrain, land use, noise constraints and the shared grid connection. Wind and PV production are combined into a single hourly time series at the substation, exactly as they are metered at the real plant.

  • Combined hourly energy from wind and solar at substation level
  • Shared grid connection, export cable losses and export limit in one model
  • Convert an existing wind project into a hybrid project without starting over

Explore the wind–solar–battery ratio

The right mix is no longer "as much PV as possible." Grid capacity is now the driver, so the question is how to fill a fixed connection most profitably. Test different ratios and see the system-level trade-offs immediately: energy, capture price and business case all at once.

  • Compare configurations against a shared grid connection
  • See how each mix changes capture price and utilisation of the connection
  • Make confident go / no-go calls earlier, before capital is locked in

Find the optimal battery size and strategy

Run an optimisation to find the battery capacity and dispatch strategy that maximises revenue on your site, using embedded historical market prices and forward predictions. The optimiser explores the capacity space and reports the revenue gain, with battery arbitrage shown separately from the rest of the market revenue.

  • Optimise battery size and duration against site-specific prices
  • Capture clipped energy when production exceeds the export limit
  • Round-trip efficiency, depth of discharge and linear degradation included
  • Revisit and compare previous optimisation runs

Industry-benchmarked PV energy calculation

Solar production is calculated on the same footing as wind yield: built on the PVGIS methodology, with the site horizon taken into account automatically. Configure the inputs that matter, then compare the result against the rest of the system.

  • Radiation sources, including SARAH3 and ERA5
  • Adjustable azimuth and tilt or optimise tilt automatically, equator-aware
  • Panel density drives peak power across the drawn PV area
  • Benchmarked to stay within ~5% of established PV tools

Methodology and benchmark comparisons are documented in the help centre, so engineers and analysts can see exactly how a number was produced.

Model grid export limits, tariffs and curtailment

Real connections have limits, and those limits shape battery strategy and revenue. Model the export cap, grid tariffs and curtailment risk, and see how dispatch adapts under genuine network constraints, including the "free" clipped energy the battery can store and sell later.

  • Export limits and grid tariffs applied to the hourly model
  • Understand curtailment and clipping losses by scenario
  • Optimise dispatch under the real constraints of the connection

From energy to business case

Because the model runs on spot-market data, it calculates revenue, not just cost. A battery can have low LCOS and still be a poor investment if it discharges when prices are low. Vind AI shows NPV and IRR from the start, so the profitability and bankability of a co-located project are visible while there's still time to change direction.

  • NPV and IRR alongside LCOE / LCOS for tender contexts
  • CAPEX, OPEX and battery characteristics built into the cash flows
  • See how the battery changes project IRR and site-specific capture prices
  • Flexibility-market estimates (ancillary + capacity) via a BESS strategy configuration

Why choose Vind AI for

advanced hybrid assessment

One system, not stitched parts

Wind, solar, storage and economics live in a single model. No exporting between tools, no reconciling assumptions at the end.

Decisions earlier

System-level and financial clarity from the first sketch, while it's still cheap to change the wind-solar-battery ratio or grid sizing.

Instantly responsive

Every change cascades through energy, dispatch and financials automatically, so results are always current.
