Clustering of many wind turbinesin a regular array in a region ofgood winds
Turbines are typically spaced 5-9rotor diameters apart in the along-wind direction, and 3-5 rotordiameters apart in the cross-winddirection To minimize aerodynamic
interference 5% reduction in power output
compared to an isolated turbine Clustering reduces costs
(economies of scale for installation), and takes better advantage of the best wind sites

Ludington Pumped Storage Plant , USA
Peak load demand occurs during the day-time, and the night-time load issmaller
Use the night-time spare generation capacity to pump water up from turbinelevel to high storage reservoirs
Stored water is available for driving water turbines during peak demand This maximizes utilization of the plant

Among the different renewable options, energy from biomass is more suited to be adopted as liquid transportation fuels. The rest better for electricity generation (unless electric or hydrogen vehicles are widely available).
