Abstract

This research explores the use of the grasshopper optimization algorithm (GOA) for optimizing the placement of additional turbines in an established wind farm. The primary objective is to increase the annual energy production (AEP) of the wind farm while minimizing the wake effects caused by both existing and new turbines. The research evaluates three different turbine types (1.5 MW, 2.0 MW, and 2.5 MW) to identify the most appropriate choice for increasing the wind farm's capacity. The GOA’s performance is compared with the commercial software windPRO and validated using WAsP software for energy calculations. Numerical results indicate that the GOA effectively improves wind farm layout, with the 1.5 MW turbines identified as the optimal choice for maximizing AEP and minimizing wake interactions. This study provides practical insights for wind farm operators and contributes to the development of advanced optimization techniques in wind energy.
