Integrated wind farm control
The proposal is expected to address all the following aspects:
- Address and validate how digital innovation on wind farm control are able to provide more stable, resilient, secure, reliable and affordable energy, while retaining high levels of cybersecurity. Focus on farm output maximization is expected. Additionally, focus on reduced component load is strongly encouraged.
- Address how these data-driven innovations reduce operational and maintenance costs, increase energy output, and their impact on (component, turbine, farm) lifetime;
- Address the role of such innovations as a prognostic tool, regarding failures and damages:
- Develop and release an open source digital/AI solution for sector uptake. This tool is expected to be built from concrete experiments and data measurements. Further, it should account for the advent of large wind turbines (up to 20 MW) and include those in the development of this tool.
In order to optimise impact and enhance synergies, cooperation with projects from the HORIZON-CL5-2021-D3-03-04 call is particularly encouraged.
The selected projects are expected to contribute and participate to the activities of the project BRIDGE[[https://www.h2020-bridge.eu/]] when relevant.
