| Summary: | The Jhongtun wind farm in the area of Penghu Archipelago is studied. The first part of the Jhongtun wind farm has been operated for 19 years, and the second part has been operated for 15 years. It is about time to evaluate the feasibility of this wind farm’s re-powering process to promote its power production. The evaluated AEPs are 82.65 GWh/year and 107.32 GWh/year. With the current deployment, roughly 12% of the power is provided by the wind farm with a 600 kW wind turbine, and its AEP is 11.46 GWh/year. The newly proposed 3 MW wind turbine has the potential to provide 100% of the power needed for the entire Penghu Archipelago. |
