Database and Operations for Wind Power Investment Research Knowledge Base Construction

Wind power investment research data mainly comes from wind turbine SCADA monitoring systems, ground meteorological observatories, power grid

What this category of data looks like

Wind power investment research data mainly comes from wind turbine SCADA monitoring systems, ground meteorological observatories, power grid dispatching ledgers, project feasibility study documents, and operation and maintenance logs. SCADA systems collect real-time operating data for individual wind turbines, updated once per minute. Meteorological data is updated hourly. Project documents are static structured reports and text descriptions, with updates triggered by project progress.

Single operating data entries include fields such as active power (unit: MW), hub wind speed (unit: m/s), blade pitch angle (unit: °), nacelle temperature (unit: ℃), and grid connection status (boolean value). Time-series data is stored in Parquet format, while project documents are mostly in PDF or structured CSV format.

The multi-source heterogeneity and differences in update frequencies of wind power data require the database to support both time-series indexing and semi-structured text parsing. SCADA data with high real-time requirements must be stored separately in a time-series database to avoid competing for query resources with static document data.

Wind power data has scenarios where multiple units are mixed, such as active power being recorded in both kW and MW. Unit unified mapping must be completed before data ingestion. Large volumes of time-series data will increase storage expansion pressure, so an automatic archiving strategy must be configured to migrate historical data beyond the retention period to cold storage.

Investment research analysis requires cross-multi-source data association, so the database must support multi-table JOIN and field unified verification to avoid data inconsistencies affecting analysis results.

How to set configurations

Configuration ItemRecommended ValueRationale
DB_CONNECTION_TIMEOUT30 secondsWind power real-time operating data queries require fast response; timeouts will cause failures in investment research tool calls
BATCH_SYNC_SIZE5000 records/batchWind power time-series data has large per-batch data volumes, avoiding database overload from a single synchronization run
TIMESERIES_INDEX_RETENTION180 daysInvestment research analysis typically requires reviewing up to six months of operating data; overly long index retention will consume excessive storage resources
PARSE_FIELD_UNIT_MAPPINGMatch preset mapping rules by field nameWind power data has mixed unit scenarios, requiring unified conversion to investment research standard units
QUERY_RESULT_LIMITTop 20 recordsInvestment research analysis requires multi-dimensional samples; limiting returned records avoids redundant data interfering with analysis

The parameter values provided on this page are common recommended starting points for configuration. Actual values are affected by material form, data volume, and business rules. Specific issues require targeted analysis, and it is recommended to test against your own samples before finalizing settings.

Three common mistakes

  • Phenomenon: The database query plugin returns a 400 status code with a prompt indicating incorrect message format. Cause: The passed SQL statement contains unescaped single quotes, and parameters are not passed via variable binding.
  • Phenomenon: No output is generated when calling a database connection during local deployment. Cause: The database port is not opened in the security group rules for the deployment node, and a correct access whitelist is not configured.
  • Phenomenon: Execution fails when passing SQL via variables, but works when entering SQL manually. Cause: Variables are not escaped, leading to corrupted SQL syntax.

How to confirm proper configuration

Execute a time-series data query for a single wind turbine, and verify that the units of the returned fields match the preset standards. Perform a batch synchronization of historical data, and verify that the number of completed synchronization records matches the total source data volume. Call a SQL query with variables, and verify that the syntax of the statement after variable replacement is correct. Simulate a multi-source data association query for an investment research scenario, and verify that the returned results meet analysis requirements.
