“…They have identified that the high wind energy potential exists over a vast area of western Saudi Arabia. Salam et al (2018) evaluated the wind characteristics, velocity and directions were studied using Weibull distribution based on the measurement of wind speed at two different locations in Brunei Darussalam. It was concluded that the annual en energy production at a wind speed of 5 m/s was found to be in the range between 1000 and 1500 kWh for both the locations in Brunei Darussalam.…”

Wind energy is one of the abundant, cheap and fast-growing renewable energy sources whose intensive extraction potential is still in immature stage in India. This study aims at the determination and evaluation of wind energy potential of three cities located at different elevations in the state of Tamil Nadu, India. The historical records of wind speed, direction, temperature and pressure were collected for three South Indian cities, namely Chennai, Erode and Coimbatore over a period of 38 years (1980-2017). The mean wind power density was observed to be highest at Chennai (129 W/m2) and lowest at Erode (76 W/m2) and the corresponding mean energy content was highest for Chennai (1129 kWh/m2/year) and lowest at Erode (666 kWh/m2/year). Considering the events of high energy-carrying winds at Chennai, Erode and Coimbatore, maximum wind power density were estimated to be 185 W/m2, 190 W/m2 and 234 W/m2, respectively. The annual average net energy yield and annual average net capacity factor were selected as the representative parameters for expressing strategic wind energy potential at geographically distinct locations having significant variation in wind speed distribution. Based on the analysis, Chennai is found to be the most suitable site for wind energy production followed by Coimbatore and Erode.

“…Wind energy is another prime candidate for green hydrogen production specifically from onshore wind farms. Wind energy is produced from the kinetic energy of the natural wind converted into mechanical energy by the wind turbine which generates electric power (Salam et al, 2018). At present, wind energy, albeit with huge potential, makes up a small percentage of the total energy generation mix in the Philippines.…”

“…Allouhi et al [17] evaluated the potential of wind energy along the coastal line at six locations (Al Hoceima, Tetouane, Assila, Essouira, Laayoune and Dakhla) in the Kingdom of Morocco. Salam et al [18] analysed the wind speed characteristics at two different locations of Brunei Darussalam using Weibull distribution. It was reported that the annual energy production was found to be in the range of 1000 and 1500 kWh at 5 m/s wind speed for both the locations.…”

An accurate estimate of wind resource assessment is essential for the identification of potential site for wind farm development. The hourly average wind speed measured at 50 m above ground level over a period of 39 years (1980-2018) from 25 locations in Tamil Nadu, India have been used in this study. The annual and seasonal wind speed trends are analyzed using linear and Mann-Kendall statistical methods. The annual energy yield, and net capacity factor are obtained for the chosen wind turbine with 2 Mega Watt rated power. As per the linear trend analysis, Chennai and Kanchipuram possess a significantly decreasing trend, while Nagercoil, Thoothukudi, and Tirunelveli show an increasing trend. Mann-Kendall trend analysis shows that cities located in the southern peninsula and in the vicinity of the coastal regions have significant potential for wind energy development. Moreover, a majority of the cities show an increasing trend in the autumn season due to the influence of the retreating monsoons which is accompanied with heavy winds. The mean wind follows an oscillating pattern throughout the year at all the locations. Based on the net annual energy output, Nagercoil, Thoothukudi and Nagapattinam are found to be the most suitable locations for wind power deployment in Tamil Nadu, followed by Cuddalore, Kumbakonam, Thanjavur and Tirunelveli.
