1. A method for evaluating a performance prediction for a wind farm, said wind farm comprising a plurality of wind turbines, the method comprising:
providing a siting model, said siting model being capable of predicting performance of a wind farm, based on performance estimates of individual wind turbines forming part of the wind farm, applying the siting model to one or more existing wind farms, thereby predicting performance of the existing wind farms, to provide a performance prediction, comparing the predicted performance of the existing wind farms to historical performance data of the existing wind farms, and evaluating the performance prediction provided by the siting model, based on the comparison, to provide a performance evaluation. |
