Webinar: The Future of Data Sharing in Wind: A Python Parser for Wind Task 43

IEA Wind Task 43, a key initiative within the International Energy Agency Wind Technology Collaboration Program, is focused on promoting and harnessing the immense potential of digitalization in wind. By unlocking the power of digital technologies, Wind Task 43 believes the wind industry can benefit from advances in everything from data-backed decision-making to better operational efficiency and the creation of more user-focused solutions.

An existing barrier to digitalization in wind that NRG Systems is working to minimize is a lack of data sharing among wind project stakeholders. One way to overcome this challenge is by making data sharing easier and more accessible. The NRG team worked with longtime customer, RWE Renewables, to create a Python package that extracts metadata from NRG data files and converts it to Task 43 formatted data. By providing easy-to-use data tools that function across organizations and platforms, we are enabling an open-source environment where it is possible to reap the benefits of industry-wide data sharing.        

This webinar, led by David Carlson, NRG’s Manager, Special Software Initiatives, provides an in-depth look at the NRG parser Python package.
