Wind Farm Control
Reliable, flexible and intelligent wind farm control systems built on decades of experience.
Reliable, flexible and intelligent wind farm control systems built on decades of experience.
Modern wind turbines and wind farms (or wind parks) have grown increasingly larger as global demand for flexible controlled power has increased. A wind farm needs to be optimized and controlled properly to ensure it is balanced and compliant with the requisite grid standards.
The Emerson wind farm control system consists of field-proven hardware, developed for harsh on- and off-shore environments, along with advanced automation software that is optimized specifically to your location.
Frequently Asked Questions about Wind Farm Control
A wind farm is controlled by a wind farm controller that dispatches the active and reactive power set points, as requested by the Transmission System Operator (TSO) either directly to the wind turbine unit, or via a cluster controller within a large wind farm.
The wind farm control system fits most grid codes, and typically consists of a wind farm controller, cluster controller, grid station, weather station, fully tested advanced automation software, and associated services. While the control system architecture is usually a standard design, a tailor-made solution can be provided to fit your specific needs.
