Abstract

The focus of this thesis is to improve the economic viability of wind energy and help integrate wind into the electric system. Wind energy plays a key role in meeting the renewable energy demands in the United States. Currently, wind farms experience a significant loss of power production due to the interactions between wind turbines when their individual performance is maximized. The main technical goal of this research is to develop techniques to obtain simplified models that will be used to properly coordinate wind turbines for more efficient operation of wind farms.
