The Wind Energy Metadata Clearinghouse included thousands of metadata records related to wind energy. These metadata records provide users with easy access to data and information from a variety of resources, such as peer-reviewed journal articles, government agency reports, private industry reports, GIS services, datasets, and news articles.
The following table lists these data for each country: total generation from wind in terawatt-hours, percent of that country's generation that was wind, total wind capacity in gigawatts, percent growth in wind capacity, and; the wind capacity factor for that year. Data are sourced from Ember and refer to the year 2023 unless otherwise specified ...
GIS data from the Global Wind Atlas is available via the IRENA Global Atlas for Renewable Energy, and has been included as the core wind data in the RETScreen software. [12] It is used by governments, renewable energy developers, and academics, and has an average of 7,500 unique users per month as of October 2018. [13]
There is also an extensive database of over 1700 organizations involved in wind energy and marine renewable energy and the environment, providing a list of publications affiliated with the organization and some basic information. Members of the Tethys community that have created a free account also have the ability to share their contact ...
The strength of wind varies, and an average value for a given location does not alone indicate the amount of energy a wind turbine could produce there. To assess prospective wind power sites, a probability distribution function is often fit to the observed wind speed data. [19] Different locations will have different wind speed distributions.
Wind energy reached a major milestone this month, according to data from the Energy Information Administration (EIA). It became the second-largest source of electricity as measured since the EIA ...
This is a list of countries and dependencies by electricity generation from renewable sources each year.. Renewables accounted for 28% of electric generation in 2021, consisting of hydro (55%), wind (23%), biomass (13%), solar (7%) and geothermal (1%).
Typically the wind data sets are collected directly from a data logger, located at a meteorological monitoring site, and are imported into a database. Once the data set is in the database it can be analyzed and validated using tools built into the system or it can be exported for use in external wind data analysis software, wind flow modeling ...
