| 20120029712 | SYSTEMS, METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR INDEXING AND PREDICTING WIND POWER OUTPUT FROM VIRTUAL WIND FARMS - This disclosure describes systems, methods, and apparatus for predicting electrical power output from wind farms using statistical methods and measured wind speeds near boundaries of control volumes that encompass the wind turbines of interest. These systems, methods, and apparatus can provide electrical power output predictions of up to 6, 12, 24, or 48 hours in advance of actual power reaching the grid. | 02-02-2012 |
