Resumen:
A strategy for controlling wind farms composed of variable speed machines is considered. It is shown that mechanical efforts produced by wind gusts on individual machines can be reduced by means of a supplementary control signal coming from a centralized controller. This is done while the total wind farm power output is kept at the same value as in the absence of the proposed controller.
