Abstract

The Wind Hybrid Open Controller (WHOC) is a python-based tool for real-time plant-level wind farm control and wind-based hybrid plant control. WHOC is primarily run in simulation, although we intend that it could be used for physical plants in future. WHOC provides simple farm-level (and hybrid plant-level) controls such as wake steering control, spatial filtering/consensus, active power control, and coordinated control of hybrid power plant assets; and creates an entry point for the development of more advanced controllers.
