Modeling wind farm conditions to win more output

Virtually all wind turbines are controlled as if they were individual, free-standing units while the vast majority are part of larger wind farm installations.

Official Press Release Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT):

A new method boosts wind farms’ energy output, without new equipment

By modeling the conditions of an entire wind farm rather than individual turbines, engineers can squeeze more power out of existing installations.

Virtually all wind turbines, which produce more than 5 percent of the world’s electricity, are controlled as if they were individual, free-standing units. In fact, the vast majority are part of larger wind farm installations involving dozens or even hundreds of turbines, whose wakes can affect each other. Now, engineers at MIT and elsewhere have found that, with no need for any new investment in equipment, the energy output of such wind farm installations can be increased by modeling the wind flow of the entire collection of turbines and optimizing the control of individual units accordingly. The increase... ... More: Official Press Release Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
