Modelling tidal current turbine wakes using a coupled RANS-BEMT approach as a tool for analysing power capture of arrays of turbines [PDF]

, 2011
The downstream evolution of the wake generated by a rotating tidal energy conversion device influences the performance of the device itself as well as the performance of any downstream device.

Observations and Analysis of Turbulent Wake of Wind Turbine by Coherent Doppler Lidar

EPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
Turbulent wake of wind turbine will reduce the power output of wind farm. The access to real turbulent wake of wind turbine blades with different spatial and temporal scales is provided by the pulsed Coherent Doppler Lidar (CDL) which operates by ...

Estimating Wind‐Power Capacity Time Series From Production Data Using a Power Curve Model and Quadratic Optimization

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Accurate, time‐resolved installed capacity data are crucial for forecasting and analysing wind‐power production. The time series of installed capacity is often only approximately known in regions with rapid wind power development. Public wind power databases may only be updated yearly and installation dates may not be differentiated within ...

Evaluating the Prediction of Wind Power Ramping Events in the Belgian Offshore Zone

Meteorological Applications, Volume 33, Issue 4, July/August 2026.
This work proposes a flexible verification framework to assess wind power ramp forecasts more comprehensively than standard metrics. Applied to the Belgian Offshore Zone, it demonstrates the effectiveness of Wind‐Farm‐Parameterization and machine learning models and indicates a strong link between severe precipitation and predictable ramp events ...

Sharing landscapes with wildlife: Conflict and coexistence between high nature value pastoral systems and large carnivores

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 7, Page 2006-2017, July 2026.
Abstract High nature value (HNV) pastoral systems, that is those maintained by herding, transhumance and extensive grazing practices, are recognised as cornerstones of European biodiversity, cultural heritage and ecosystem service provision. Yet these systems are currently under significant pressure from a range of economic, social and environmental ...

A Calibration Procedure for an Analytical Wake Model Using Wind Farm Operational Data

Energies, 2020
Wind energy is one of the fastest growing renewable energy sources in the U.S. Wind turbine wakes change the flow field within wind farms and reduce power generation. Prior research has used experimental and computational methods to investigate and model

Sparsity Applications for Gradient‐Based Optimization of Wind Farms

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Optimizing wind farms is essential for designing efficient energy systems, especially as farms grow larger and span multiple sites. However, this optimization becomes increasingly challenging due to the rising computational cost associated with more turbines.

Assessing the Underwater Impact of Aerodynamic Noise From Offshore Wind Turbines

Wind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The growing demand for offshore wind energy has led to a significant increase in wind turbine size and to the development of large‐scale wind farms, often comprising 100–150 turbines. However, the environmental impact of underwater noise emissions remains largely unaddressed.
