Wind project economics

CEVentus

Wind project economics in one model

CEVentus will cover turbine selection, energy yield with wakes and losses, cost build-ups, financing structures and revenue under market scenarios, in one auditable model from layout to levelised cost. Revenue is priced against the live CEGridSight market model rather than a flat price assumption.

What it will cover

Yield, costs and revenue for a wind project

Energy yield runs from site layout and turbine selection through a full loss waterfall (wakes, electrical, availability, icing and curtailment) to net AEP with P50, P75 and P90 distributions. Wakes use the same Bastankhah–Porté-Agel Gaussian model that CompoundVision runs on the operating fleet, and the weather comes from 86 years of hourly site data in the CEAtlas store, so the inter-annual spread is realistic.

Capex and opex are built bottom-up by component, with debt sizing, DSCR covenants and merchant-tail assumptions, and every line stays visible.

Revenue scenarios cover PPA, hub price, basis and curtailment paths. They use hourly zonal price paths from CEGridSight, so capture rates and curtailment risk come from a market model scenario by scenario. LCOE, IRR, NPV and payback are shown side by side, with the change attributed to each driver.

Status: in active build, planned for the top CEAtlas tier. Early-access customers work with the engineering team on the specification and the validation.
