The design of industrial grade wind turbines and wind farms have been made possible utilising OpenFAST. Considering the increasing development in technologies, this application is opensource from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. Unlike other purchased applications, the FAST application consist of several moving parts. It however lacks a simplified graphical user interface.
