Abstract

The invention provides a method for determining a wind turbine layout in a wind power plant comprising a plurality of wind turbines. The method comprises the steps of generating a plurality of random layout candidates fulfilling a set of basic requirements, and then performing a pre screening process on each of the plurality of random layout candidates. Based on the pre-screening process, a subset of layout candidates is selected and detailed optimization is performed on the layout candidates of the selected subset of layout candidates. Based on the detailed optimization, an optimized layout for the wind power plant is selected among the optimized layout candidates of the subset of layout candidates.
