WAsP
WAsP (Wind Atlas Analysis and Application Program) is the industry-standard software for wind resource assessment, siting, and energy yield calculations for wind turbines and wind farms. Developed by DTU Wind and Energy Systems, WAsP has a proven track record of over 35 years and is recognized worldwide by banks and authorities. The software is utilized globally across various terrains, providing models and tools for every step in the process, from wind data analysis to site assessment and energy yield calculations. Typical applications include calculating energy yield for turbines and wind farms, assessing wind farm wake losses and efficiency, conducting wind resource and turbulence mapping, and siting turbines and wind farms. WAsP incorporates several models to describe wind climate and flow over diverse terrains, including a built-in linear wind flow model suitable for flat to moderately complex terrain and easy access to the state-of-the-art WAsP CFD wind flow model.

OpenWindPower
OpenWindPower is an offshore wind turbine analysis software developed by Bentley Systems, designed to support both fixed foundation and floating platform projects. The software enables users to explore design alternatives, predict performance, and deliver safe, cost-effective offshore wind farm structures. For fixed foundation projects, OpenWindPower provides comprehensive capabilities for the design and analysis of offshore wind turbine foundation structures, considering wave, wind, and turbine mechanical loading to predict both fatigue and extreme loads for the substructure and nonlinear soil foundation. In floating platform projects, the software offers advanced modeling capabilities to design 3D hydrodynamic and structural models subjected to wave, current, wind, and turbine mechanical loads, facilitating time-domain simulations that compute sea pressures and inertial loads for detailed structural analysis.
