Field Implementation and Performance Analysis of Wind Farm Wake Steering

Wake effect is a significant challenge for the efficiency and economic performance of wind farms. Wake steering control has shown potential to alleviate the wake impact and improve the overall performance. This paper presents a field study applying wake steering techniques within a commercial wind farm, demonstrating a comprehensive implementation process for wake steering control, and highlights both the opportunities for power optimization and the challenges associated with field applications. The results exhibits measurable improvements in the overall power production for the wind turbines, although issue with yaw execution accuracy remains. These findings offer valuable insights into the practical application of wake steering and provide a foundation for future efforts to optimize this strategy in operational wind farms.
