Realistic Optimization of Parallelogram-Shaped Offshore Wind Farms Considering Continuously Distributed Wind Resources

Offshore wind power plants are becoming a realistic option for the renewable production of electricity. As an improvement tool to the profitability of OWFs, this work presents the first complete non-genetic (and non-binary) evolutionary algorithm to optimize the location, size and layout of a parall...
