A new artificial intelligence software upgrade for wind turbines has been developed that could improve efficiency enough to power Albania for a year.

But this is not foolproof, and in most cases, wind turbines are rarely, if ever, positioned directly facing the prevailing wind. The new AI was built to improve this significantly by combining the wind turbines existing reactive systems with a reliable predictive element computed by the AI. Rolling out this technique globally could dramatically increase electricity production, amounting to 5 terawatt-hours per year.

By developing a new algorithm, they found that the increase in energy output from a given installation was about 1.2 percent overall and 3 percent for optimal wind speeds. The algorithm can be utilized at any wind farm, and due to the increasing number of wind farms being established to meet ambitious climate objectives, its deployment potential is expanding quickly.

According to the researchers, applying the 1.2 percent energy increase to all of the world's existing wind farms would be equivalent to adding over 3,600 new wind turbines. This would generate enough power for about 3 million homes and result in a total gain of almost a billion dollars per year for power producers.
