Wind Farm Group Efficiency - A Sensitivity Analysis with a Mesoscale Model

Abstract

The total installed capacity in the North Sea was in 2012 5 GW, and it estimated that it will grow to 40 GW by 2020 (EWEA). This will lead to an increasing wind farm density in regions with the most favourable conditions. In this study, we investigate the sensitivity of power density losses to wind farms that are in the wake of an upstream wind farm.
