misaligned yaw operate to deflect their wakes away from the downstream turbines . The act of doing this then produces a yield of power for the wind farm and , therefore , generates energy . According to PNAS , the process of wake steering in certain situations is capable of increasing energy or power production between 7 % and 13 % whilst decreasing variability by as much as 72 %.
In order for wind farms and energy suppliers alike to be prepared for the future , onboarding AI and Cloud computing will be an advantage . Whether the technology is being used or generating wind power using wake steering , predicting power output , or automating manual operations such as the inspection of wind turbines , AI and Cloud can enhance the industry , making operations easier to manage , more cost-effective , and ensure it is equipped to cope with future demands . energydigital . com 51
