Abstract

For securing maximum output of power using a given type of wind electric generator, an assessment of the wind resource available at any prospective site is essential. Estimation of wind power potential is based on data of the wind frequency distribution at the site, are collected from official meteorological data. The analyses show that coastal and dry arid zones in Karnataka have good wind potential.
