simplified example of estimating the energy yield of a wind turbine. It starts by defining wind speed data ranging from 2 m/s to 25 m/s. The power curve parameters, including cut-in, rated, and cut-out wind speeds, are also set. The power curve equation is then used to model the relationship between wind speed and the power output of the wind turbine. A uniform wind speed probability distribution is assumed.
By taking into account the probability of occurrence for each wind speed, the code calculates the energy yield of the wind turbine. The result is displayed in kilowatt-hours (kWh) and represents the expected energy output under the given wind speed distribution and power curve assumptions.
