Do wind turbines often go on strike? Full analysis of reasons and countermeasures

Many people are curious why many wind turbines seem to be stationary there? In fact, there are usually two reasons for the fans in wind farms. Firstly, a significant reason is the limited load of wind farms, which means there is no consumption space on the power grid. To put it simply, the electricity you generate is not consumed by users, so you have to stop. Because the entire power is a real-time dynamic system that cannot be stored, the emitted power can only be used in a timely manner to achieve dynamic balance. The waste of all resources is inevitable and also causes serious damage to power generation companies! The country is also striving to change this situation. By constructing ultra-high voltage and ultra high voltage transmission circuits, new energy from the northwest region will be sent to places with strong electricity demand such as Shandong and Zhejiang as much as possible, solving the problem of power rationing.

Meanwhile, wind power is also a highly unstable power source with too much randomness to provide accurate output. With the increasing proportion of new energy, the installed capacity of stable thermal power continues to decline, leading to more power restrictions. In order to solve this problem, wind power is currently predicting its power generation capacity more accurately through wind power forecasting, and systematically allowing large enterprise electricity users to start operating at appropriate times, which greatly alleviates the power restrictions of wind farms.

The second reason is that the fan has malfunctioned and must be shut down for maintenance in order to resume operation. In this case, there are usually relatively few opportunities for downtime. There will be no large-scale shutdown, and the situation seen by the main body is more likely to be the former scenario!
