Thanks for the feedback Matt, I understand why the format needed to change.
Now we need to decide how we will incorporate the data from the revised curtailment report into the monthly report given to the owner.

Take this example of a typical curtailment: CPS requests that we keep each line at 30MW. With the old format, we would enter one line of information that contained all of the turbines that were shut down. This would work IF the same exact turbines were shut down for the duration of the curtailment. This is never the case. To maintain a specific output (which is always what CPS requests) we are constantly shutting down and starting turbines due to windspeed fluctuation. Using the old format, there would be a new line entered every time another turbine was shut down or restarted. This would also imply (inaccurately) that all the turbines affected by the curtailment were stopped and started each time a new turbine was added. With the new format, when we start or stop a turbine we just add another line. This is the better method of the two to accurately record the down time, because it is itemized. If the operators follow the procedure that has been given to them, this will be very accurate. I apologize for the confusion over some of the information on the first March Log. We have gone over the procedure again with all onsite personnel so we should not see the discrepancies again that we saw in March. If you have any questions or suggestions, please give me a call. Also, if you give me your fax#, I can fax you an original copy of the curtailment form so you can see first hand how the information is recorded.

Clear Sky monthly report. This format is one that I would like to stick with but if it not practical to provide the information in this format it is acceptable to alter or change it as long as we provide the information in one form or another. I am not sure what drove the change in format but we need to decide how this information will be provided and stick with it on a consistent basis. With the coming changes in the Asset Management group it behooves us to standardize each portion of the monthly report. The person responsible for compiling the information contained in the report as well as preparing the monthly reports is going to change very soon. Lets discuss this soon as the March reports are due next week. Thanks KA
