Micrositing of wind farms and transmission network impact

A. Ramos S. Lumbreras R. Espejo

January 2015 - December 2018

Funding entity Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad


This task is divided in two:
- Micrositing, i.e., location of the wind turbines in a farm area
The effect of the separation of the wind turbines are introduced in a wind farm layout design model, considering the power output results obtained from CFD models for many possible separation steps. The ultimate objective is to define the optimal micrositing of the wind turbines.
- Transmission network impact of wind farms.
In a second step, an advanced optimization model capable to represent the complexity of the transmission network is developed.
