Abstract. Wake steering is a form of wind farm control in which turbines use
yaw offsets to affect wakes in order to yield an increase in total energy
production. In this first phase of a study of wake steering at a commercial
wind farm, two turbines implement a schedule of offsets. Results exploring
the observed performance of wake steering are presented and some
first lessons learned. For two closely spaced turbines, an approximate
14 % increase in energy was measured on the downstream turbine over a
10∘ sector, with a 4 % increase in energy production of the
combined upstream–downstream turbine pair. Finally, the influence of
atmospheric stability over the results is explored.
