Wind Farm Monitoring at Storm Lake I Wind Power Project - Equipment Only: Cooperative Research and Development Final Report, CRADA Number CRD-10-369

Research output: NRELTechnical Report

Abstract

Long-term, high-resolution wind turbine and wind power plant output data are important to assess the impact of wind power on grid operations and to derive meaningful statistics for better understanding of the variability of wind power. These data are used for many research and analysis activities consistent with the Wind Program mission: establish a database of long-term wind power similar to other long-term renewable energy resources (e.g., solar irradiance and hydrology); produce meaningful statistics about long-term variation of wind power, spatial and temporal diversity of wind power, and correlation of wind power, other renewable energy resources, and utility load; provide high quality, realistic wind power output data for system operations impact studies and wind plant and forecasting models validation.
