WEBINAR #1: The Next Generation of Wind Farm Control: 4 European Projects
Horizon Europe has granted funding to 4 projects under the call “Integrated Wind Farm Control”, aiming to unlock the full potential of wind energy technologies for low-cost, reliable, and clean energy generation.
To achieve the EU’s goal of being climate neutral by 2050, the next generation of wind farms will need to be supported by an even more innovative set of physical and digital tools, as well as operational controls, collectively known as wind farm control.
Generally, wind farm control refers to the coordination of different wind turbines within a wind farm to improve the overall farm power production and to reduce structural loading among wind turbines.
The European projects ICONIC, SUDOCO, TWAIN and WILLOW are working on achieving these innovations.
You can now learn more about it in the webinar that has been organised the next 10th of September, a 1.5 hour online session.
