Install WSP Solutions

Add and deploy features in SP2010

Add assembly to GAC using powershell

http://blog.goverco.com/2012/04/use-powershell-to-put-your-assemblies.html

Powershell batch file to remove and install wsp file again, need to remove last line and add -force attribute to deploy command

http://jstevensblog.com/post/Powershell-Script-to-Automatically-Deploy-Sharepoint-WSP-Packages.aspx

Finally, above batch file looks like shown below after adding commands to deploy farm level solution and activate features at the web application level. Please note, this file needs to be saved in the folder where wsp files to be installed are located, and also this file would install all wsp files in the folder to all web applications at the farm.

# Change Powershell execution directory to the scripts folder
$scriptBase = split-path $SCRIPT:MyInvocation.MyCommand.Path -parent
Set-Location $scriptBase

# Declare constants
$packages = (dir *.wsp | Select-Object name
$currentDir = (Get-Location).Path 
$urlWebApplication = "http://sharepoint:1234/"

Also there is a related script to activate web application, site collection or web level features based on a CSV file available to download at http://www.sharepointpals.com/post/Activating-Feature-in-Web-SiteCollection-WebApplication-Scopes-using-PowerShell-in-SharePoint-2013
