Am investing the wind and wave activities over the Atlantic with view of ascertaining areas suitable for power generation. What are those factors I should consider?
You can also share with me relevants and helpful materials.
The important factors are the intensity of wind speed and its direction
Also the type of wind turbine or suitable wind turbine for this location (lift or drag)
@Abbas J Jubear, thank you. Can you share with me relevant and useful materials?
@Mehdi Attar, can you share the link to the wind Atlas with me?
The most significant keyword to the theme of your question is 'wind resource assessment'. There are many factors that can be used to describe a wind resource, such as the Wind Power Density (WPD), average wind speed, impacts of terrains (or wind shear), and Weibull PDF of the wind speeds. The following articles include assessments of the wind resources at many locations of different characteristics,
