Description
Almost all offshore and most onshore wind turbines are sited in wind farms where curtailments and wake
losses can be quite substantial. This feasibility project explores the creation of a technology base that enables
operators to increase the joint operational efficiency of wind turbines sited in wind farms. The envisaged
WakeBlaster technology delivers cost effective, faster than real-time, yet accurate modelling of even very large
wind farms. Control strategies based on WakeBlaster will lead to more efficient wind farms, reducing both
social cost and levelised cost of electricity.
