turbines (i.e., within a mile or even a half mile) did so for less than similar homes that sold between 3 and 10 away miles in the same period.»
Modeling has also shown that it's relatively inexpensive to increase the reliability of the total
wind output to a level equivalent to a coal - fired power station by adding a few low - cost peak - load gas
turbines that are opearated infrequently, to fill in the gaps when the
wind farm production is low (Diesendorf 2010).
«Our findings show that China's underperformance is also driven by suboptimal
turbine model selection (31 % of the gap),
wind farm siting (23 % of the gap), and
turbine hub heights (6 % of the gap)-- factors that have received less attention in the literature and, crucially, are locked - in for the lifetime of
wind farms,» explain the authors, who were supported by Harvard University, US, and are now at the University of Minnesota, US, Florida State University, US, and Cambridge University, UK.
