Abstract: A method for controlling noise generated by a wind farm with a plurality of wind turbines is disclosed. In the event that a predicted noise level exceeds a predefined threshold noise value, one or more wind turbines are selected using a noise propagation model and respective wind turbine models for the selected one or more wind turbines, and by performing an optimisation process to reduce the predicted noise level at the predefined evaluation position to a level below the predefined threshold noise value while maximising the total power production of the wind farm.

Abstract: Calculating a wind speed associated with a return period at a proposed wind turbine site. The method comprises selecting a first set of storms from wind speed measurements measured at the proposed site, and selecting a second set of storms from modelled wind speeds, the modelled wind speeds being estimates of wind speeds at the proposed wind turbine site during the measurement period from a mesoscale data set. A comparison is made of characteristic wind speeds of the first and second sets of storms to determine a correction factor. A third set of storms is selected from an extended set of modelled wind speeds from an extended mesoscale data set, and the correction factor is applied to characteristic wind speeds of the third set of storms to provide corrected wind speeds. A wind speed associated with the return period is calculated from the corrected characteristic wind speeds.
