Supporting O&M Scheduling with Probabilistic Forecasts

I'm working with a great consortium of industry leaders to develop decision-support tools for wind O&M. Recently, we've been focused on heavy-lift operations which as subject to strict wind speed safety limits. Using scenario forecast (some times called trajectory or statistical ensembles) we can estimate both the expected cost and risk associated with different scheduling options. This kind of information can help reduce operational costs for on- and offshore wind, lowering the cost of wind energy for all.
