Wind farms vary in size from a small number of turbines to several hundred wind turbines covering an extensive area.

Many of the largest operational onshore wind farms are located in China, India, and the United States.

Because they require no fuel, wind farms have less impact on the environment than many other forms of power generation and are often referred to as a good source of <a href="/wiki/Sustainable_energy" title="Sustainable energy">green energy</a>. Wind farms have, however, been criticised for their visual impact and impact on the landscape. Typically they need to be spread over more land than other power stations and need to be built in wild and rural areas, which can lead to "industrialization of the countryside", <a href="/wiki/Habitat_loss" class="mw-redirect" title="Habitat loss">habitat loss</a>, and a drop in tourism. Some critics claim that wind farms have adverse health effects, but most researchers consider these claims to be pseudoscience (see <a href="/wiki/Wind_turbine_syndrome" title="Wind turbine syndrome">wind turbine syndrome</a>). Wind farms can interfere with radar, although in most cases, according to the US Department of Energy, "siting and other mitigations have resolved conflicts and allowed wind projects to co-exist effectively with radar".<a href="#cite_note-windexchange-6">[6]</a> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Siting_considerations">Siting considerations</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Wind_farm&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Siting considerations">edit</a>]</div> Location is critical to the overall success of a wind farm.

Colour codes indicate wind power density class.</figcaption></figure> The faster the average wind speed, the more electricity the wind turbine will generate, so faster winds are generally economically better for wind farm developments.<a href="#cite_note-Xydis-etal-2009-7">[7]</a> The balancing factor is that strong gusts and high turbulence require stronger more expensive turbines, otherwise there is a risk of damage. The average power in the wind is not proportional to the average wind speed. For this reason, the ideal wind conditions would be strong but consistent winds with low turbulence coming from a single direction. Mountain passes are ideal locations for wind farms under these conditions. Mountain passes channel wind, blocked by mountains, through a tunnel like pass towards areas of lower pressure and flatter land.<a href="#cite_note-8">[8]</a> Passes used for wind farms like the <a href="/wiki/San_Gorgonio_Pass_wind_farm" title="San Gorgonio Pass wind farm">San Gorgonio Pass</a> and <a href="/wiki/Altamont_Pass_wind_farm" title="Altamont Pass wind farm">Altamont Pass</a> are known for their abundant wind resource capacity and capability for large-scale wind farms. These types of passes were the first places in the 1980s to have heavily invested large-scale wind farms after approval for wind energy development by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management. From these wind farms, developers learned much about turbulence and crowding effects of large-scale wind projects, which were previously unresearched, in the U.S. due to the lack of operational wind farms large enough to conduct these types of studies.<a href="#cite_note-9">[9]</a> Usually sites are screened on the basis of a <a href="/wiki/Wind_atlas" title="Wind atlas">wind atlas</a>, and validated with on-site wind measurements via long term or permanent meteorological-tower data using <a href="/wiki/Anemometer" title="Anemometer">anemometers</a> and <a href="/wiki/Weather_vane" title="Weather vane">wind vanes</a>. <a href="/wiki/Meteorology" title="Meteorology">Meteorological</a> wind data alone is usually not sufficient for accurate siting of a large wind power project. Collection of site specific data for wind speed and direction is crucial to determining site potential<a href="#cite_note-eweaFact-10">[10]</a><a href="#cite_note-11">[11]</a> in order to finance the project.<a href="#cite_note-12">[12]</a> Local winds are often monitored for a year or more, detailed wind maps are constructed, along with rigorous grid capability studies conducted, before any wind generators are installed. The wind blows faster at higher altitudes because of the reduced influence of drag. The increase in velocity with altitude is most dramatic near the surface and is affected by topography, surface roughness, and upwind obstacles such as trees or buildings. At altitudes of thousands of feet/hundreds of metres above sea level, the power in the wind decreases proportional to the decrease in air density.<a href="#cite_note-13">[13]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Electricity_grid_considerations">Electricity grid considerations</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Wind_farm&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Electricity grid considerations">edit</a>]</div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Biglow_Canyon_Wind_Farm_under_construction.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/14/Biglow_Canyon_Wind_Farm_under_construction.jpg/350px-Biglow_Canyon_Wind_Farm_under_construction.jpg" decoding="async" width="350" height="230" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/14/Biglow_Canyon_Wind_Farm_under_construction.jpg/525px-Biglow_Canyon_Wind_Farm_under_construction.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/14/Biglow_Canyon_Wind_Farm_under_construction.jpg/700px-Biglow_Canyon_Wind_Farm_under_construction.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2602" data-file-height="1711" /></a><figcaption>Part of the <a href="/wiki/Biglow_Canyon_Wind_Farm" title="Biglow Canyon Wind Farm">Biglow Canyon Wind Farm</a>, <a href="/wiki/Oregon" title="Oregon">Oregon</a>, United States with a turbine under construction</figcaption></figure> Often in heavily saturated energy markets, the first step in site selection for large-scale wind projects, before wind resource data collection, is finding areas with adequate available transfer capability (ATC). ATC is the measure of the remaining capacity in a transmission system available for further integration of two interconnected areas without significant upgrades to existing transmission lines and substations. Significant equipment upgrades have substantial costs, potentially undermining the viability of a project within a location, regardless of wind resource availability.<a href="#cite_note-14">[14]</a> Once a list of capable areas is constructed, the list is refined based on long term wind measurements, among other environmental or technical limiting factors such as proximity to load and land procurement. Many <a href="/wiki/Regional_transmission_organization_(North_America)" title="Regional transmission organization (North America)">independent system operators</a> (ISOs) in the United States such as the California ISO and Midcontinent ISO use interconnection request queues to allow developers to propose a new generation for a specific given area and grid interconnection.<a href="#cite_note-15">[15]</a> These request queues have both deposit costs at the time of request and ongoing costs for the studies the ISO will make for up to years after the request was submitted to ascertain the viability of the interconnection due to factors such as ATC.<a href="#cite_note-16">[16]</a> Larger corporations who can afford to bid the most queues will most likely have market power as to which sites with the most resource and opportunity are eventually developed. After the deadline to request a place in the queue has passed, many firms will withdraw their requests after gauging the competition in order to make back some of the deposit for each request that is determined too risky in comparison to other larger firms' requests. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Design">Design</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Wind_farm&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Design">edit</a>]</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Turbine_spacing">Turbine spacing</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Wind_farm&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Turbine spacing">edit</a>]</div> A major factor in wind-farm design is the spacing between the turbines, both laterally and axially (with respect to the prevailing winds). The closer the turbines are together, the more the upwind turbines block wind from their rear neighbors (wake effect). However, spacing turbines far apart increases the costs of roads and power cables, and raises the amount of land needed to install a specific capacity of turbines. As a result of these factors, turbine spacing varies by site. Generally speaking, manufacturers require a minimum of 3.5 times the turbine's rotor diameter of clear space between each adjacent turbine's respective spatial envelope. Closer spacing is possible depending on the turbine model, the conditions at the site, and how the site will be operated.[<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation

The government of Pakistan decided to develop wind power energy sources due to problems supplying energy to the southern coastal regions of Sindh and Balochistan. The Zorlu Energy Putin Power Plant is the first wind power plant in Pakistan. The wind farm is being developed in Jhimpir, by Zorlu Energy Pakistan the local subsidiary of a Turkish company. The total cost of the project is $136 million.[3] Completed in 2012, it has a total capacity of around 56MW. Fauji Fertilizer Company Energy Limited, has built a 49.5 MW wind Energy Farm at Jhimpir. Contract of supply of mechanical design was awarded to Nordex and Descon Engineering Limited. Nordex is a German wind turbine manufacturer. In the end of 2011 49.6 MW was expected to be completed. The Pakistani government also issued a Letter Of Interest in a 100 MW Wind power plant to FFCEL. The Pakistani government had plans to achieve electric power generation of up to 2500 MW by the end of 2015 from wind energy to bring down an energy shortage. Currently four wind farms are operational (Fauji Fertilizer 49.5 MW (subsidiary of Fauji Foundation), Three Gorges 49.5 MW, Zorlu Energy Pakistan 56 MW, Sapphire Wind Power Company Limited 52.6 MW) and six are under construction phase ( Master Wind Energy Limited 52.6 MW, Sachal Energy Development Limited 49.5 MW, Yunus Energy Limited 49.5 MW, Gul Energy 49.5 MW, Metro Energy 49.5 MW, Tapal Energy) and were expected to achieve COD in 2017. In the Gharo wind corridor, two wind farms (Foundation Energy 1 & II each 49.5 MW) are operational while two wind farms Tenaga Generasi Limited 49.5 MW and HydroChina Dawood Power Pvt. Limited 49.5 are under construction and expected to achieve COD in 2017. According to a USAID report, Pakistan has the potential of producing 150,000 megawatts of wind energy, of which the Sindh corridor can produce 40,000 megawatts. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Philippines">Philippines</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Wind_farm&action=edit&section=20" title="Edit section: Philippines">edit</a>]</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1251242444"><table class="box-Unreferenced_section plainlinks metadata ambox ambox-content ambox-Unreferenced" role="presentation"><tbody><tr><td class="mbox-image"><div class="mbox-image-div"><a href="/wiki/File:Question_book-new.svg" class="mw-file-description"><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/50px-Question_book-new.svg.png" decoding="async" width="50" height="39" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/75px-Question_book-new.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/9/99/Question_book-new.svg/100px-Question_book-new.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="512" data-file-height="399" /></a></div></td><td class="mbox-text"><div class="mbox-text-span">This section does not <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_sources" title="Wikipedia:Citing sources">cite</a> any <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability" title="Wikipedia:Verifiability">sources</a>.
