PLATFORM FOR OPERATIONAL DATA

POD SERVICES

The Platform for Operational Data (POD) enables you to access and request data sets collected by us from our operational Levenmouth 7MW offshore wind demonstration turbine.

Better access to quality data leads to better analysis and insight and thus better decision-making – this, in turn, leads to reduced risk for investors and greater return on investment. Through our demonstration turbine, we aim to support innovative research, projects and product development through data provision to academics, researchers, and the wider community pursuing growth opportunities in renewable energy. 

POD DATA COLLECTION SETS

Browse the POD catalogue and request your required datasets. Samples of each data collection are available for you to view. There is a small charge to cover the data retrieval, depending on the size or complexity of the request, and this will be calculated after we have received your request. When you have submitted your request, we will endeavour to respond to you about the delivery of your request within three working days. 

There are several data collection sets that can be obtained, including:  

Floating turbine design cases

Measurements from a floating turbine in Equinor’s Hywind wind farm in Scotland for 11 operational cases

LDT Alarm Log

A log of the alarms that have been recorded at the LDT turbine. Each record in the alarm log is one alarm that shows why a turbine has been stopped.

LDT met mast SCADA

Met Mast data from the LDT turbine site consisting of 11 sensors including wind speed and direction at various heights.

LDT Substation SCADA

Substation data from the LDT turbine site consisting of 17 sensors including power factor, reactive power, voltage and current.

LDT Turbine SCADA

SCADA data from the LDT turbine consisting of 574 sensors including electrical, temperature, pressure readings. Each sensor provides a data value at 1Hz frequency.
