Characterization of Multimodality in Wind Farm Layout Optimization

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The phenomena of multiple optima in wind farm layout optimization (WFLO) problems is investigated. The choice of optimization algorithm and cost of solving WFLO problems is driven by the degree of local optimality in the design space; however little work has attempted to characterize this.

Flow and wakes in large wind farms in complex terrain and offshore [PDF]

, 2008
Power losses due to wind turbine wakes are of the order of 10 and 20% of total power output in large wind farms. The focus of this research carried out within the EC funded UPWIND project is wind speed and turbulence modelling for large wind farms ...

Improving the Characteristics of the Direct FOC Strategy in DFIG‐Based Wind Turbine Systems Using FOIDD and FOPD Controllers

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This study presents a new control strategy for doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) wind turbine systems to overcome the limitations of traditional direct field control using proportional‐integral (DFOC‐PI) regulators, which are sensitive to coefficient changes and lead to low power quality.

Comprehensive Feasibility Study of Solar Power Plants

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global transition to solar energy is frequently impeded by high project failure rates, largely due to feasibility assessments that emphasize geographic and economic aspects while overlooking critical technical, environmental, and socio‐administrative dimensions.

Diverse responses of coastal communities to offshore wind farming development in Southern Spain

Moravian Geographical Reports, 2022
Despite having one of the fastest rates of wind power growth in Europe, offshore wind power development in Spain has been relatively slow. One of the factors affecting its deployment is strong local opposition.

Design of HAWT Rotor for Non‐Uniform Inflow Conditions: A Theoretical and Experimental Approach for Shear Flow

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper aims to provide a robust design approach for HAWTs operating in shear flow. This study fills a critical research gap by integrating BEM and vortex theories for blade design in non‐homogeneous inflow conditions. The authors of the paper made an effort to develop and test an experimentally unsophisticated model of a turbine working in shear ...
