The energy to engage: wind farm development and community engagement in Australia [PDF]
This report reviews what is known about community engagement in wind energy industry and identify what we still need to understand. After briefly presenting the relationship between wind farms and society as a significant one, we will recapitulate what ...

Climate change and perennial crop production: Evidence of yield impact and adaptation in California
Abstract Perennial crops are economically important. They contribute to food security, providing essential nutrients that are often lacking in annual crops, and provide additional environmental benefits compared with annual crops. Despite their importance, empirical research on the impacts of climate change and adaptation on perennial crops remains ...

Abstract This paper derives a firm‐level threshold, the Herfindahl Neutral Point, from the standard concentration index used in merger review. At this threshold, a marginal expansion leaves the index unchanged. Firms below the threshold reduce concentration when they expand; firms above it increase concentration.

Farm labor scarcity and its uneven impacts on crop producers in the United States
Abstract This study is the first to evaluate the impacts of farm labor scarcity on producers in the United States across different crop production systems. Between 2002 and 2017, we disentangle the effects of labor scarcity from the impacts of rising commodity demand, technological change, and supply of other inputs on labor market outcomes.

Farmflow : extensively validated and dedicated model for wind farm control
In a wind farm, turbines affect each other through their wakes, decreasing their power production and increasing the structural loading (wear and tear) of their components.

Wind Turbine and Wind Farm Control Testing in a Boundary Layer Wind Tunnel
The paper describes a wind tunnel scaled wind farm made of two wind turbine models, each featuring active blade pitch and torque control. The models, governed by supervision and control systems similar to those of a real wind turbine, are capable of ...

Risk management externalities in agrifood supply chains
Abstract Firms may under‐ or over‐invest in risk management from the social planner's perspective, resulting in a negative externality on other economic agents in the supply chain. The externality of risk management is particularly relevant for agrifood supply chains, which frequently experience disruptions and play a primary role in preventing major ...

Direct-drive wind farms usually trip all wind turbines to ensure power grid security when facing sub/super-synchronous oscillation risks. Tripping the entire wind farm not only seriously damages the production operation of the wind farm, but also causes ...
