Abstract Wind power will be key to achieve the European Renewable Energy targets and making the EU carbon-neutral by 2050. Wind farms can cover several square kilometers of land and the permitting processes must consider the legitimate concerns of citizens regarding the environmental noise impact. In order to increase local acceptance of wind farm projects, a noise mitigation strategy should be available in cases where the noise standards are exceeded. A validated noise prediction model with monitored data will permit to verity the compliance of the noise regulations with best precision and limit the production of the wind turbines only when it is strictly required. This paper shows a methodology for the optimization of the electricity production of a wind farm, considering different noise calculation standards during the design of noise mitigation strategies. . |
