Title: Sandia SWiFT Facility Site Operations Manual

Abstract

The Scaled Wind Farm Technology (SWiFT) site, operated by Sandia National Laboratories for the U.S. Department of Energy’s Wind and Water Power Program, was commissioned in 2013 as a research facility with multiple wind turbines at a scale useful for the experimental study of wake dynamics, advanced rotor development, turbine control, and advanced sensing at production-scale wind farms. This manual provides an overview of facility operations, hazards and safety controls, and emergency response procedures at the site and is required reading for all SWiFT staff and Sandia workers, collaborators, and contractors who perform work on the site.
