Main issue: Wind data cannot be matched with the desired timeseries of wind

Source of problem: Not enough statistics is provided

Matching wind data to a desired time series is essential for accurate energy modelling. A key challenge in this process is using a wind data file that's too short, which leads to poor statistics and unreliable results.

Key Points:

1. Extend Wind Data Duration:

- The wind data file must be long enough to provide accurate statistics.

- Extend the wind data duration to improve the accuracy of the time series match.

2. Data Length for Time Series Matching:

- The wind data set from wind field test for matching should be longer than the target time series.

- To achieve a longer data set, consider mirroring the existing data.
