Abstract: The present subject matter is directed to a system and method for optimizing wind turbine operation. For example, the present disclosure is configured to generate operating data for at least one operational parameter of the wind turbine for a predetermined time period. The system can then determine a robustness measurement of at least a portion of the operating data. In general, the robustness measurement indicates the tendency of the operating data to be affected by outliers present in the operating data. In addition, the robustness measurement is typically a function of a distribution of the operating data. The present disclosure is then configured to determine at least one optimal set point for the operational parameter as a function of the robustness measurement and a power production of the wind turbine. The wind turbine can then be operated based on the optimal set point.

Abstract: In one aspect, a method for assessing the performance impact of wind turbine upgrades may generally include determining a baseline power curve for a wind turbine prior to the wind turbine being upgraded and determining a baseline wind speed transfer function for the wind turbine prior to the wind turbine being upgraded. The method may also include determining an upgraded wind speed transfer function for the wind turbine after the wind turbine is upgraded. In addition, the method may include determining a corrected local wind speed for the wind turbine based on the baseline and upgraded wind speed transfer functions and determining an upgraded power curve for the wind turbine based on the corrected local wind speed.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for validating and/or identifying wind farm performance measurements so as to optimize wind farm performance. The method includes measuring operating data from one or more wind turbines of the farm. Another step includes generating a plurality of baseline models of performance of the wind farm from at least a portion of the operating data. Thus, each of the baseline models of performance is developed from a different portion of operating data so as to provide comparable models. The method also includes selecting an optimal baseline model and comparing the optimal baseline model with actual performance of the wind farm. In a particular embodiment, the actual performance of the wind farm is determined after one or more wind turbines of the wind farm is modified by one or more upgrades.
