No new posts Wind Energy - General Questions / FAQs
Conversion of wind energy into a useful form of energy, such as electricity, using wind turbines. Large-scale wind farms are connected to the electric power transmission network; smaller facilities are used to provide electricity to isolated locations. Wind Energy - General Questions / FAQs.

No new posts Wind Turbine Installation & Turbine Replacement
Discussions related to Wind Turbine Installation & Turbine Replacement. Good selection of a wind turbine site is critical to economic development of wind power. Aside from the availability of wind itself, other factors include the availability of transmission lines, value of energy to be produced, cost of land acquisition, land use considerations, and environmental impact of construction and operations.

No new posts Grid Management
Discussions related to Grid Management. Induction generators, often used for wind power projects, require reactive power for excitation so substations used in wind-power collection systems include substantial capacitor banks for power factor correction.

No new posts Capacity Factor
Discussions related to Capacity Factor. Since wind speed is not constant, a wind farm's annual energy production is never as much as the sum of the generator nameplate ratings multiplied by the total hours in a year. The ratio of actual productivity in a year to this theoretical maximum is called the capacity factor. Typical capacity factors are 20–40%, with values at the upper end of the range in particularly favourable sites.

No new posts Wind Penetration
Discussions related to Wind Penetration. Wind energy "penetration" refers to the fraction of energy produced by wind compared with the total available generation capacity. There is no generally accepted "maximum" level of wind penetration. The limit for a particular grid will depend on the existing generating plants, pricing mechanisms, capacity for storage or demand management, and other factors.

No new posts Capacity Credit and Fuel Saving
Discussions related to Capacity Credit and Fuel Saving. Many commentators concentrate on whether or not wind has any "capacity credit" without defining what they mean by this and its relevance. Wind does have a capacity credit, using a widely accepted and meaningful definition, equal to about 20% of its rated output (but this figure varies depending on actual circumstances).
