Offshore wind farm optimisation: a comparison of performance between regular and irregular wind turbine layouts

Layout optimisation is essential for improving the overall performance of offshore wind farms. During the past 15 years, the use of yield optimisation algorithms has resulted in a transition from regular to more irregular farm layouts. However, since the layout affects many factors, yield optimisation alone may not maximise the overall...

Impact of WTG converter impedance model on harmonic amplification factor of the Dutch 110kV transmission network using a 383MW wind farm case study

In this decade, a significant amount of additional wind and solar power will be integrated in the Dutch high voltage grid. The 383 MW nearshore Wind Park Fryslân is foressen to be connected to the Dutch 110kV grid in 2020 through two 55km cable circuits. To quantify the risks of exceeding emission levels for both the TSO and the wind farm...

Power system operation with large-scale wind power in liberalised environments

Our society revolves around electricity. Most electricity is produced from fossil fuels, such as coal and natural gas. The disadvantages are that their supply is finite and unevenly distributed across the earth. Conventional power stations also emit greenhouse gases. Therefore, sustainable alternativees must be developed, such as wind power. The...
