Wind Power Revenue Potential: Simulation for Finland

Potential revenue from wind power generation is an important factor to be considered when planning a investment. In the future, that may become even more because it known tends push electricity wholesale prices lower. Consequently, possible if region has plenty of installed capacity, per generated unit lower there than could assumed by looking at mean price. this paper, we compare 17 different locations in Finland terms generation. That done simulating hourly with three turbine types two hub heights and multiplying spot price for years 2018 2019. Estimated revenues differ greatly between types, major being technical potential i.e., amount generated. Differences MWh seem small, however, smallest figures on western coast where capacities are also largest Finland.
