CHAPTER 4: WIND FARM DESIGN


Introduction

Previous chapters have discussed wind turbine technology and the wind resource.  This chapter presents a brief summary of the design of a wind farm as a whole. 


The chapter is based on onshore wind farms, though many of the topics are also relevant for offshore.  Offshore wind farms are covered in Chapter 5: Offshore.


Environmental factors that affect wind farm design are discussed in this chapter.  Further environmental issues are covered in detail in Part V.
