Global potential for wind-generated electricity [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2009
The potential of wind power as a global source of electricity is assessed by using winds derived through assimilation of data from a variety of meteorological sources. The analysis indicates that a network of land-based 2.5-megawatt (MW) turbines restricted to nonforested, ice-free, nonurban areas operating at as little as 20% of their rated capacity ...

Comparison of Blade Aeroelastic Responses between Upwind and Downwind of 10 MW Wind Turbines under the Shear Wind Condition

Energies, 2023
This paper examines the potential for reducing the cost of energy for super-scale wind turbines through the use of a downwind configuration. Using nonlinear aeroelastic modeling, the responses of 10 MW upwind and downwind wind turbine blades are ...

Maximising revenue for non-firm distributed wind generation with energy storage in an active management scheme [PDF]

, 2013
The connection of high penetrations of renewable generation such as wind to distribution networks requires new active management techniques. Curtailing distributed generation during periods of network congestion allows for a higher penetration of ...

On learning to generate wind farm layouts [PDF]

Proceedings of the 15th annual conference on Genetic and evolutionary computation, 2013
Optimizing a wind farm layout is a very complex problem that involves many local and global constraints such as inter-turbine wind interference or terrain peculiarities. Existing methods are either inefficient or, when efficient, take days or weeks to execute.

Plug-in electric vehicles as demand response to absorb local wind generation in power distribution network [PDF]

, 2013
It has been forecast that by 2020, the penetration of renewable generation in the UK energy mix will reach approximately 15%, predominantly from wind generation, and that the number of electric vehicles (EVs) deployed is also expected to exceed 1 million.

Fatigue prediction of high-strength bolts in wind turbines

Dianzi Jishu Yingyong
The flange plate and blade root hub of wind turbines are connected by high-strength bolts, and the collapse of most wind turbine towers is caused by the fatigue of the connecting bolts.

Power Disturbance Monitoring through Techniques for Novelty Detection on Wind Power and Photovoltaic Generation

Sensors, 2023
Novelty detection is a statistical method that verifies new or unknown data, determines whether these data are inliers (within the norm) or outliers (outside the norm), and can be used, for example, in developing classification strategies in machine ...

Characterisation of large changes in wind power for the day-ahead market using a fuzzy logic approach [PDF]

, 2014
Wind power has become one of the renewable resources with a major growth in the electricity market. However, due to its inherent variability, forecasting techniques are necessary for the optimum scheduling of the electric grid, specially during ramp ...
