• Abstract: We provide a condition monitoring system for wind farms, based on normal behaviour modelling using a probabilistic multi-layer perceptron with transfer learning via fine-tuning. The model predicts the output power of the wind turbine under normal behaviour based on features retrieved from supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems. Its advantages are that (i) it can be trained with SCADA data of at least a few years, (ii) it can incorporate all SCADA data of all wind turbines in a wind farm as features, (iii) it assumes that the output power follows a normal density with heteroscedastic variance and (iv) it can predict the output of one wind turbine by borrowing strength from the data of all other wind turbines in a farm. Probabilistic guidelines for condition monitoring are given via a CUSUM control chart. We illustrate the performance of our model in a real SCADA data example which provides evidence that it outperforms other probabilistic prediction models.

  Many AI applications in wind energy may benefit from using operational data not only from individual wind turbines but from multiple turbines and multiple wind farms. Federated learning has emerged as a privacy-preserving distributed machine learning approach in this context. We investigate various federated learning strategies, including collaboration across different wind farms and turbine models, as well as collaboration restricted to the same wind farm and turbine model.
