contents We study a joint wind farm planning and operational scheduling problem under decision-dependent uncertainty. The objective is to determine the optimal number of wind turbines at each location to minimize total cost, including both investment and operational expenses. Due to the stochastic nature and geographical heterogeneity of wind power, fluctuations across dispersed wind farms can partially offset one another, thereby influencing the distribution of aggregated wind power generation-a phenomenon known as the smoothing effect. Effectively harnessing this effect requires strategic capacity allocation, which introduces decision-dependent uncertainty into the planning process. To address this challenge, we propose a two-stage distributionally robust optimization model with a decision-dependent Wasserstein ambiguity set, in which both the distribution and the radius are modeled as functions of the planning decisions, reflecting the statistical characteristics of wind power resources. Then, we reformulate the model as a mixed-integer second-order cone program, and the optimal objective value provides a probabilistic guarantee on the out-of-sample performance. To improve computational efficiency, we develop a constraint generation based solution framework that accelerates the solution procedure by hundreds of times. Numerical experiments using different datasets validate the effectiveness of the solution framework and demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed model.
