Wind farms/Wind Power Plants are a group of wind turbines installed in a specific geographical which has very high wind potential. The turbines are placed in such a way that it maximizes the extraction of kinetic energy from the wind and minimizes wake losses. Wind farms are often located in areas such as coastal regions, plains, and elevated/Undulated landscapes where wind speeds are higher. The main challenge faced during optimizing the design, operation, control, and grid- integration of these wind farms is the prediction of its performance due to its multi-scale flow interaction between the wind turbines and the turbulent atmospheric conditions prevailing on site.
