## Welcome to Hydesign
- A tool for design and control of utility scale wind-solar-storage based hybrid power plant (HPP).
- Hydesign is a non-linear model for evaluating HPP projects including: 
    - Wind turbine selection
    - Wake losses that depend on the number of turbines and the installation density of the wind plant
    - Internal energy management system operation of the plant. The operation of the HPP plant is designed in an ideal scenario without degradation and a actual operation that can include degradation of the battery, or PV plant, as well as forecast errors in wind, solar and spot prices.
    - Non-linear battery degradation
    - Detailed cost models for wind, solar and Li-ion battery
    - Detailed financial model based on weighted costs of capital per technology
