A Wind Farm Electrical Systems Evaluation with EeFarm-II

A Wind Farm Electrical Systems Evaluation with EeFarm-II

EeFarm-II is used to evaluate 13 different electrical systems for a 200 MW wind farm with a 100 km connection to shore. The evaluation is based on component manufacturer data of 2009. AC systems are compared to systems with DC connections inside the wind farm and DC connection to shore. Two options...
