Abstract:The present work presents perspectives and merit functions for the optimization of the internal electrical network topology of an offshore wind farm by using a bat echolocation algorithm. The optimization goals are the minimization of cable costs and the maximization of reliability, through the determination of radial topologies that meet such criteria. In order to evaluate reliability, a generation index specific for wind farms is used. The purpose is to evaluate solutions for the problem under different crit… Show more
