A Newly-Developed Method Improves the Output of Wind Energy Farms Without Any New Equipment
2 min read
Engineers can help boost power output among existing wind power plants by modeling the current conditions of the entire farm instead of the individual wind turbines.
Generally, wind turbines are controlled individually as stand-alone units. The wind power industry produces over 5 percent of worldwide electricity. Large wind farms come with dozens to hundreds of wind turbines.
