Wind power generation project planning drawings

How is a wind energy project developed?

The development of a wind energy project is a long and complex process, involving – depending on the size of the project – the assessment of technical, economical, environmental, legal and political issues.

How to design a wind turbine project?

Type and rating of wind turbines are selected and the layout is optimized by computer tools concerning the expected output. Besides output, installation of connection lines and (possible) transformer station as well as construction of roads for installation and service of the wind park are essential criteria for the project layout .

How to plan a wind project?

The local road network must be suitable to provide access for large transportation vessels. An initial investigation will give a first idea of the necessary extensions for the wind project . Grid connection must be available in an appropriate distance to keep connection costs low.

What factors should be considered when planning a wind turbine project?

How do wind turbines produce power?

Wind turbine power production consists in the extraction by the turbine rotor of a fraction of the kinetic energy available in the wind. The wind turbine cannot capture all the energy available in the airflow. The design optimization of the wind turbines is mainly oriented toward increasing this conversion efficiency.

What is the power available in a wind turbine?

With the air mass flow the power available in the wind is: (8.10) where Pw is the power in the wind (W), the air density (kg/m 3), A the cross-area through which the wind passes (m 2), and V the wind speed (m/s). The wind turbines are designed to transform a fraction of this kinetic energy in the wind into useful energy.
