METHOD FOR PREDICTING WIND CONDITIONS IN WIND FARM

摘要

A method for predicting wind conditions in a wind farm is provided. The method includes the steps of: (a) measuring wind conditions including a wind speed and a wind direction by means of wind condition measurement devices disposed outside the wind farm; (b) compensating for an error occurring while the wind conditions measured by the wind condition measurement devices are reaching the wind farm; and (c) calculating wind conditions in each wind turbine in the wind farm after a predetermined time based on the wind conditions whose error is compensated in step (b). According to the present invention, it is possible to stably operate the wind farm and effectively operate the entire power grid associated with the wind farm by accurately predicting the wind conditions after a predetermined time to minimize the fluctuation in power output of the wind farm due to a change in the wind conditions.
