Clir Renewables has been selected by Northleaf Capital Partners to help optimise production at Cotton Plains, which is comprised of two wind farms in Texas with a combined capacity of 200MW.
This follows the successful use of the Clir platform in optimising production at Northleaf’s Canadian Breaks wind farm in Texas.
The new mandate brings the scope of work in the state with Clir to 410MW.
Clir will use its dataset, drawn from over 200GW of assets across different turbines, technologies, regions and ages, to prepare and perform analytics on Northleaf’s Cotton Plains wind farms in conjunction with the operations and maintenance teams, to help optimise output and increase financial returns.
Kaushik Ramki, Director at Northleaf, said: “At a time of increased volatility in the energy market, we are seeing a continued push for expanded renewable energy generation across the United States.
“Optimising our assets through the Clir platform is important from an asset management perspective to help maximise the value of our investment and deliver enhanced returns for our investors.”
“It is critical that we use high quality data to optimise our wind farms’ output and analyse technical and financial opportunities to increase projects’ value.”
