An analysis of offshore wind farm SCADA measurements to identify key parameters influencing the magnitude of wake effects

For offshore wind farms, wake effects are among the largest sources of losses in energy production. At the same time, wake modelling is still associated with very high uncertainties. Therefore current research focusses on improving wake model predictions. It is known that atmospheric conditions,...
