Synthesis of a compact wind profile using evolutionary algorithms for wind turbine system with storage

Abstract

In this paper, the authors investigate two methodologies for synthesizing compact wind speed profiles by means of evolutionary algorithms. Such profile can be considered as input parameter in a prospective design process by optimization of a passive wind system with storage. Compact profiles are obtained by aggregating elementary patterns in order to fulfil some target indicators. The main difference between both methods presented in the paper is related to the choice of these indicators. In the first method, they are related to the storage system features while they only depend on wind features in the second.
