Analysis of Wind Measurement Scheme for a Wind Power Project in Mountainous Area
With the rapid development of renewable energy,the exploration and utilization of wind re-sources are increasingly valued.In the process of tapping into wind energy resources in complex terrains,a reasonable wind measurement scheme has a decisive impact on accurately assessing the wind energy re-sources at a site.Through a case study of wind farm resource assessment in a mountainous area in Central China,this paper analyzes the electricity simulation results and the mutual inference results of anemometer towers under different wind measurement schemes using Meteodyn WT software.The results indicate that the accurate representativeness of anemometer towers has a crucial impact on the simulation outcomes.In complex mountainous terrains,the vertical representativeness of anemometer towers is very limited.When the representativeness of anemometer towers is insufficient,there will be deviations between the simulation results and the actual conditions,thereby affecting the rational assessment of project.It is recommended that in the early stages of complex mountainous projects,owners should pay close attention to the limited vertical representativeness of anemometer towers.For projects with significant altitude differences,the wind measurement scheme should be representative of wind conditions at high,middle,and low altitudes.
