Development of an optimum wind farm layout using four met masts
Development of an optimum wind farm layout using four met masts
Site: Western Canada
Results:
The influence of the nearby sea is strongly overestimated by the model, this could be solved through a modified modelling of the roughness lengths.
Poor quality of the met mast data, inconsistent anemometer data
Due to the measurement heights being close together, no reliable vertical extrapolation is possible.
A first layout of the wind farm was developed. Due to a pronounced main wind direction, the wind turbines ware placed in several rows, with an adequate distance between these. However, the distance between neighbouring turbines could be strongly reduced.

Oldershausen, 15 May 2018: A new study of aj shows that the wind resource of the years around 1990 cannot be considered as very exceptional any more. Consequently, these years must be included in the long term reference period, if the result should be balanced. Download of the report Wind D NAO-Index E 15.05.2018 aj
