Developed by the Government of Canada, the software is multilingual, and includes links to wind energy resource maps. The Wind Data Generator (WDG) is a Wind Energy Software tool capable of running WRF (Weather Research and Forecasting) model to create a wind atlas and to generate wind data at resolutions of 3 km to 10 km.
The plan, Wind Vision 2025, could create over 50,000 jobs and represent around CDN$165 million annual revenue. If achieved, CanWEA's target would make the country a major player in the wind power sector and would create around CDN$79 billion of investment. It would also save an estimated 17 megatonnes of greenhouse gas emissions annually. [2]
The Canadian weather radar network consists of 33 weather radars spanning Canada's most populated regions. Their primary purpose is the early detection of precipitation , its motion and the threat it poses to life and property.
The Global Wind Atlas is a web-based application developed to help policymakers and investors identify potential high-wind areas for wind power generation virtually anywhere in the world, and perform preliminary calculations. It provides free access to data on wind power density and wind speed at multiple heights using the latest historical ...
The operational GEM model is interfaced with a full complement of physical parametrizations, these currently include: solar and infrared radiation interactive with water vapor, carbon dioxide, ozone and clouds, prediction of surface temperature over land with the force-restore method,
The Canadian Centre for Climate Modelling and Analysis (CCCma) is part of the Climate Research Division of Environment Canada and is located at the University of Victoria, Victoria, British Columbia. Its purpose is to develop and apply climate models to improve understanding of climate change and make quantitative projections of future climate ...
Coal is the primary source of energy followed by natural gas, hydro, and then wind power. Net-metering policies are in place. Initiatives are being implemented to add more wind farms to the current list of 5; Saskatchewan is hoping double wind power generation by 2017. Plans are being generated to develop Solar energy projects.
The Tehama County, California EFU tornado on January 3, 2025.. From January 3 to January 7 of 2025, a major winter storm passed over the contiguous United States.The storm system made landfall on January 3 over the West Coast of the United States, [4] where it produced the first tornado of the year, a brief EFU tornado in rural Tehama County, California, which caused no damage.
