Short summary
We verify wake effects between two wind turbines in complex terrain using supervisory control and data acquisition data. By identifying “wake conditions” and “no-wake conditions” detected by the blade pitch angle of upstream wind turbines, we evaluate wake effects on wind speed ratio, turbulent intensity, and power output. Results show that flow downhill has a significant impact on wake effects compared to flow uphill. The method shows the potential of SCADA data during the downtime of wind turbines.
