Icing Forecasts

Stay informed about future icing events to avoid higher balancing costs and imbalanced prices with ConWX’s cloud-based Icing Forecasting solution, designed for energy players operating or trading wind energy in cold climates.

Prediction of Icing Events & Probability

Forecast of icing events up to 48 hours ahead, characterized as 0/1, where 0 represents no icing event during that timestamp, and 1 indicates an icing event is forecasted for that given timestamp. Predictions of icing events are provided with an associated probability for each icing event, represented as a percentage.

ConWX Icing forecasts are delivered at the park level with a time resolution ranging from 10 minutes to 1 hour.

Prediction of Power Losses

Forecast of power losses up to 48 hours ahead, expected due to icing events occurring at the plant. The forecast is provided as an absolute value in kW for a given timestamp.

Predictions of power losses are provided at the park level with a time resolution ranging from 10 minutes to 1 hour.

Customized

We can adjust the format, delivery frequency, time resolution, and units of the forecasts based on the client’s request.
