摘要：Wind power’s current growth rates are among the fastest in the world. Research on techniques to make wind farms more energy efficient is warranted for this reason. Optimizing the location of wind turbines within wind farms makes the use of wind energy more efficient and makes wind farms more competitive with other energy sources. The investment expenses for the only substations and electrical infrastructures of the offshore wind farms represent between 15 and 30% of the overall investment cost of the project, this leads us to study the optimization of the location of the substation. can reduce these expenses, which also reduces the total cable length inside the wind farm. Our objective is therefore to study the optimization of wind farms with two objective functions aimed at minimizing the costs of installing wind turbines and reducing connectivity between wind turbines using a metaheuristic PSO algorithm.
