SCREEN FASTER WITH THE BEST LCOE HEAT MAPS
Generate the best LCoE or IRR heat maps on the market – combining GIS analytics with Youwind´s calculation power
AUTOMATICALLY GENERATE A PARK LAYOUT … IN SECONDS
Produce endless wind farm layouts, based on specific – or automatic – spacing criteria. Account for present and future neighbouring wind farms for the most accurate yield calculations
CONSTRAINT ANALYSIS AND MAPPING (GIS)
Use Youwind´s GIS preset data library of processed GIS layers and extend it with your own to dive deep into environmental and technical constraints to identify the best development areas
DRAG AND DROP TURBINES FOR FAST MICROSITING
Gain an immediate technical characterization of each turbine location – helping you make informed micrositing decisions
HOLISTIC BANKABLE YIELD ASSESSMENT
Compare Wake Models, such as N.O. Jensen or TurboPark and account for blockage effects. Include wind resource time series (synthetic or measured with long-term correction) or deep dive on seasonability analysis on your project yield assessment
STAY SECURE
Benefit from the highest standards of confidentiality, IT protocols, and data protection to keep your project´s data safe
How does Pixel+ work?
Pixel+ combines advanced GIS analysis with a comprehensive constraint library to identify optimal development areas, using both its GIS library and user-uploaded layers securely. It’s the best-in-class app for early-stage project screening, quickly generating LCoE heat maps to pinpoint ideal wind farm locations.
In under a minute, Pixel Park optimizes park layouts based on wake losses and yield. It then allows users to delve into micrositing, performing multicriteria sensitivity analysis for turbine location changes, considering individual yield performance, bathymetry, and effects from neighboring farms.
Pixel+ ensures the traceability of your offshore wind project, tracking technical changes and their impact on the overall business case.

FAQ
Am I going to receive technical support during the Project Pilot or Annual Subscription?
Yes, during the Project Pilot or Annual Subscription you are going to receive IT support and offshore wind expertise support following the onboarding procedure. Technical support based on IT functionalities is included throughout the duration of your contract.
Can we add specific weather data in Optiwindow?
Yes, it is possible to add specific weather data in our logistic planner such as wind speed at harbour and wind/wave data at the site through “Edit weather data” on the Activity Section of Optiwindow.
How are the Pixel/subareas defined when screening the area?
When screening your area with Pixel, you can set the wind farm density which is the power capacity (MW) divided by the area (km2) and with the power capacity, Pixel app will split the designated area into different small sub-areas called “pixels”.
