What is WAsP?WAsP is a PC program for predicting wind climates, wind resources and power productions from wind turbines and wind farms. The predictions are based on wind data measured at stations in the same region. The program includes a complex terrain flow model, a roughness change model and a model for sheltering obstacles. WAsP is developed and distributed by DTU Wind Energy, department of DTU, Denmark (former Wind Energy Division of Risø-DTU). There are currently more than 3000 users in over 110 countries and territories who use WAsP for all steps from analysis of wind- and terrain effects to estimation of wind farm production. Read more about what WAsP can do for you to see the details. You may also download a demo version of WAsP. WAsP will run on a PC with Windows 2000, XP or Vista, see the hardware and software requirements. Looking for a certified WAsP user?
A WAsP certificate assures that the holder has reached a certain level in using WAsP. There are now 176 certified WAsP users in 27 different countries – in Europe, North- and South America, Pakistan, India, South Korea, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, New Zealand and South Africa. Read more about the WAsP certification scheme. 
The WAsP Team wishes all WAsP users a Happy - and windy New Year!!
