1. A system for monitoring and controlling the operation of wind turbines located within a wind farm, the system comprising:
a first wind turbine located within the wind farm, the first wind turbine including a first turbine controller configured to monitor one or more operating parameters associated with the first wind turbine and provide a first control interface for controlling the operation of the first wind turbine; a second wind turbine located within the wind farm, the second wind turbine including a second turbine controller configured to monitor one or more operating parameters associated with the second wind turbine and provide a second control interface for controlling the operation of the second wind turbine, the second turbine controller including a processor and associated memory, the memory storing instructions that, when implemented by the processor, configure the second turbine controller to access data from the first turbine controller; and an off-site supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) system located remote to the wind farm, the off-site SCADA system including a server communicatively coupled to the first and second turbine controllers, the server being configured to communicate control signals to the first and second turbine controllers in order control the operation of the first and second wind turbines, the off-site SCADA system being further configured to receive data associated with the one or more operating parameters monitored by the first and second turbine controllers, wherein, when connectivity is lost between the wind farm and the off-site SCADA system, the second turbine controller is configured to access data from the first turbine controller associated with the one or more operating parameter of the first wind turbine order to monitor the operation of the first wind turbine. |
