Wind farm power optimization through wake steering [Engineering]

Global power production increasingly relies on wind farms to supply low-carbon energy. The recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Special Report predicted that renewable energy production must leap from 20% of the global energy mix in 2018 to 67% by 2050 to keep global temperatures from rising 1.5°C above...
