Wind Speed Generation Method of Desert−Gobi−Wasteland Renewable Energy Base Based on Physical-Informed Neural Networks

High spatial resolution wind speed data is very important for wind farm planning, design, operation and maintenance. But due to cost, site and other factors, it is impossible to build a large number of anemometer towers to obtain high spatial resolution measured data. Therefore, this paper proposes a method for generating wind speed data in renewable energy bases based on physics-informed neural networks, which incorporates fluid mechanics control equations such as the Navier−Stokes equation as physical constraints into the model training process. The model’s input includes the wind speed data and the wind direction data of the anemometer towers as input, as well as the geographical difference data between the input anemometer towers and the output point, enabling to learn the mapping relationship between geographical differences and wind speed differences at different locations, achieving the goal of generating high spatial resolution wind speed data. Using normalized root mean absolute error (NMAE) to measure the model error, the average wind speed error and the average wind direction error of the proposed wind speed data generation method on different test sets are 8.28% and 10.50%, which is lower than that of BP neural network and graph convolutional neural network, and can provide more refined data support for wind turbine layout planning and wind farm power prediction of renewable energy bases.
