1. A method for controlling power production for a wind farm wherein the wind farm is electrically coupled to a power grid, the method comprising:

  • receiving time series data of actual power produced by the wind farm at a plurality of time instances in a data receiving time interval;

    deriving a plurality of power characteristic features from the time series data at each time instance from the plurality of time instances;

    generating power production forecast data for the wind farm for a forecast time interval using the plurality of power characteristic features and a set of tunable coefficients derived using a tunable power forecasting model, wherein the tunable power forecasting model is based on an asymmetric loss function applied on a history of time series data of actual power produced by the wind farm, and wherein the tunable power forecasting model characterizes optimal wind farm performance; and

    controlling wind farm power production based at least in part on the power production forecast data.
