Abstract

Modeling of a wind power plant (WPP) containing numerous wind turbines in a highly detailed manner requires a substantial computational cost. Further, the response and dynamic behavior of the WPP systems are significantly influenced by the dynamic nature of wind speed. This paper presents a methodology of aggregating WPP systems with consideration for wind speed directions. To attain a realistic aggregated model, an algorithm for calculating actual exact wind speed at each wind turbine within the WPP was proposed considering different wind speed directions. Furthermore, the best wind speed direction for a fixed site area that produces a minimum wind energy losses inside the WPP was also assessed and reported. The results revealed the importance of employing the exact wind speed calculations within the WPP to ensure that the aggregated WPP model accurately represents real-world conditions. The results of this paper highlighted the role of wind direction in determining the response of WPPs and provide guidance on maximizing the WPP throughput during the year under the prevailing wind speed direction at the site.
