Wind modelling based on wind input data conditions using Weibull distribution
Weibull distribution can be used to model the wind speed distribution at a particular site and hence, it can help in wind resource assessment (WRA) of a site. By calculating the shape (k) and scale (c) parameters for Weibull distribution, the wind speed frequency curve for a site can be made. Once this wind speed distribution for site is determined, it can be convolved with the power curve for a ...

Atmospheric stability in wind resource assessment: Development of a new tool for an accurate wind profile estimate
The main objective of this paper is to investigate some key issues related to the atmospheric stability for the development of wind power projects, aiming to contribute to increase the reliability of this source and its safe insertion into the energy matrix. It is also important to note that the techniques and methodologies to be described were conceived taking into consideration one main ...

Wind resource assessment using numerical weather prediction models and multi–criteria decision making technique: case study (Masirah Island, Oman)
The Authority for Electricity Regulation in Oman has recently announced the implementation of a 500 kW wind farm pilot project in Masirah Island. Detailed wind resource assessment is then required to identify the most suitable location for this project. This paper presents wind resource assessment using nested ensemble numerical weather prediction (NWP) model's approach at 2.8 km resolution and ...
