Case Study: Iberdrola improves wind energy forecasting with WhiteBox

Iberdrola forecasts wind output across 13 sites with WhiteBox using 50 TB of data

Iberdrola, a global leader in wind energy, faced the monumental challenge of accurately predicting energy production across its wind farms to succeed in competitive energy auctions. To process terabytes of complex meteorological data, they partnered with WhiteBox for a machine learning solution.

WhiteBox developed an innovative system using Spark for data processing and implemented customized Gradient Boosting models for each wind farm. This advanced solution allowed Iberdrola to move from traditional methods to a highly accurate forecasting model, improving the reliability and profitability of its operations while managing over 1 GW of energy.
