Abstract
According to an aspect of the invention, a wind farm is provided. The wind farm includes a plurality of wind turbines and a wind farm controller. The controller is configured to detect a high wind condition from at least one wind turbine in the wind farm, reduce a parameter setpoint of at least one other wind turbine, and increase a cut-out wind speed threshold of the at least one other wind turbine.
Claims16
A wind farm comprising:
- a plurality of wind turbines;
- and
- a wind farm controller, the controller is configured to:
- detect a high wind condition from at least one wind turbine in the wind farm;
- reduce a parameter setpoint of at least one other wind turbine;
- and
- increase a cut-out wind speed threshold of the at least one other wind turbine, wherein detecting the high wind condition from the at least one wind turbine comprises detecting whether the at least one wind turbine has been shut down due to high wind condition.
