Reduced Levelized Cost ofEnergythrough Optimization of Tower Height, Rotor Diameter And\Wind Farm Layout

Journal Title: American journal of Engineering Research - Year 2018, Vol 7, Issue 4

Abstract

Wind power has become the most important renewable energy source. Two factors are mainly influencing its future development: scarcity of sites and levelized cost of energy (LCoE). By a site specific turbine and wind park design it is possible to improve both aspects compared to state of the art approach. Within this paper an analytical tool and a multi-objective optimization method is presented which is able to identify optimal site specific wind turbine and wind farm layout such that available space is used efficiently in terms of the amount of supplied energy and LCoE. With the help of this approach it is possible to increase a wind farms AEP by 20% and decrease its LCoE by 10% for an exemplarily site and wind park layout in Germany.
