WG 15 develops IEC standards in the area of Information technology. Currently, there are 141 published standards from this technical committee.
The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is the world's leading organization for the preparation and publication of international standards for electrical, electronic, and related technologies. Founded in 1906, the IEC provides a global platform for companies, industries, and governments to meet, discuss, and develop the international standards they require.
A Technical Committee (TC) in IEC is a group of experts responsible for developing international standards in a specific technical area. TCs are composed of national member body delegates and work through consensus to create standards that meet global industry needs. Each TC may have subcommittees (SCs) and working groups (WGs) for specialized topics.
IEC 61400-15-1:2025 defines a framework for assessment and reporting of the wind turbine suitability conditions for both onshore and offshore wind power plants. This includes:
a) definition, measurement, and prediction of the long-term meteorological and wind flow characteristics at the site;
b) integration of the long-term meteorological and wind flow characteristics with wind turbine and balance-of-plant characteristics;
c) characterizing environmental extremes and other relevant plant design drivers;
d) addressing documentation and reporting requirements to help ensure the traceability of the assessment processes.
This document is framed to complement and support the scope of related IEC 61400 series by defining environmental input conditions. It is not intended to supersede the design and suitability requirements presented in those documents. Specific analytical and modelling procedures as described in IEC 61400-1, IEC 61400-2, IEC 61400-3-1 and IEC TS 61400-3-2 are excluded from the scope of this document.
