By definition, a renewable energy source is a non-depletable source. For example, fossil fuels (coal, oil, and natural gas) are depletable sources of energy. Solar, wind, tidal, and wave energy are examples of renewable sources of energy.

With respect to your second question, the answer is yes. You can harvest wind energy in the Middle East geographical area but keep in mind that there is a limit of the wind velocity below which the wind turbines cannot run to produce electricity.

To know more about the wind energy and wind turbine operating curve, you can download my lecture notes on the wind power from the profile under ResearchGate.net. This lecture notes is part of the "Green Energy Systems (GES)" course that I developed and taught at Yale University (School of Engineering & Applied Science, Yale College, and Yale School of Forestry & Environmental Studies).

Hope this helps answer your question and good luck!

Renewable energy is energy derived from natural resources that are replenished ie that are not implemented. . . . Renewable energy is produced from wind, water and the sun, and can be produced from wave and tidal movement or from geothermal energy, as well as from agricultural crops and oil-producing trees.

If the rated wind speed is above 5 m/s, you can develop the wind power generation system.

Following answers.

The proposed area is suitable for wind energy generation. I do recommend the baseline criteria of Dr. Aung Ze Ya.

Any source of energy which does not get depleted (eg., wind, wave, sunlight, etc.), can be called as renewable energy. By "Middle East", if you mean only GCC countries, the western coastal areas of Saudi Arabia and parts of Oman have high wind velocities. The problem is that it is not consistent throughout the year, so you will have periods when wind speed will almost drop to zero. Due to this reason, it has not been highly popular as much as solar power plants, although small capacity wind turbines are planned in some places. Again, I am talking only about GCC region.

Renewable energy is the energy from a source that is not depleted when used, such as wind and solar power.

Dear Omar A. Imran.

Renewable energy (sun, wind), characterized by inconstancy of energy. To compensate for this inconstancy, it is necessary to convert it into a secondary energy carrier (electricity, hydrogen), with its subsequent accumulation. If necessary, through the fuel cell (hydrogen), the inverter recoil to the consumer. The whole essence of the question is in the efficiency of obtaining a secondary energy carrier with given storage parameters.

If you are interested in the issue of hydrogen production by a new electrochemical method, which provides high purity of hydrogen production -99.98% and high operating pressure of generated gases over 20.0 MPa. then look at my articles on ResearchGate.

Renewable energy is theenergy produced from sources that do not deplete or can be replenished within a human’s life time. The most common examples include wind, solar, geothermal, biomass, and hydropower.

Not all renewable energy sources rely on the sun. For example, geothermal energy utilizes the Earth’s internal heat, tidal energy relies on the gravitational pull of the moon, and hydropower relies on the flow of water.

Dear Omar

Please take a look at my published research on the subject, I have applied some research in Iraq and it was actually practical, clean and efficient and can be applied in Middle East and in Iraq specifically..

Best regards

Wind system already exploited in Egypt

Following with great interest sir.....

Renewable energy takes different sources such as wind, tides, solar energy, sunlight, water falls, etc. They are all available in the middle east. Governments can cooperate to exploit all these sources efficiently.

Obviously, the Middle East has a large solar resource.

The wind resource is variable depending on location, topography, etc.

Some areas do have a good wind resource, even better than expected. For instance the Shagaya renewable energy park in Kuwait has already demonstrated that wind energy is very effective there, just as solar. Reports on performance results of these systems are forthcoming, so stay tuned.

That is quite possible if all countries in the Middle East cooperate and provide the necessary funding of establishing great projects to use wind energy.

Renewable energy is energy generated from natural resources—such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides and geothermal heat.

Yes, wind can be used to generate energy.

Thanks for your good answer Joshua O. Ighalo

Dear Omar, I will consider your research Omar Hazem MOHAMMED

Thanks for your good answer Nirmala S.V.S.G

Thanks for your good answer Hazim Al Dilaimy

Actually, there is a difference between the two types of renewable energy.

You are welcome Joshua O. Ighalo

Thank you my dear Khansaa Azeez Obayes Al-Husseini

Good afternoon colleagues. Humanity has somehow learned to transform the primary (renewable) sources of energy, it is true. But their use is difficult, due to the periodicity of energy supply. Learning how to effectively accumulate generated electrical energy in an environmentally friendly way is the problem.

Solar insolation depends on the latitude of the territory on which the photovoltaic converters are installed. Wind is the movement of cold and heated air masses. But they are all characterized by inconstancy.

This is the non depleted energy from a sustainable resource....It is found anywhere, anytime and in large quantities. One example is the solar energy...Of course, one of the best parts of the world that this energy availabe and can easily be explored is the middle east

Dear Omar A. Imran

I think that renewable energies are well known ...

As for the use of wind to produce electric energy, in my view, yes. It is possible to use this energy. Still, the problem is that a comprehensive study of wind speed in the Middle East must be presented, before starting studies on this energy anywhere. I think in Iraq, we have a good rate of speed in northern Iraq, some mountains and hills surrounding Iraq and open places, but in central Iraq specifically, I think wind energy is weak and cannot be exploited.

Best regards

Wind, sunlight, heat, the arctic cold, and rainfall can be transformed into energy. However, we must ask ourselves for what sake is energy being used in the process for making the outcome that is sustainable for human needs.

Converters of wind energy to electricity (wind generators) are not entirely environmentally friendly. During their work, they create low-frequency sound vibrations, which has a detrimental effect on the ecosystem. In addition, when disposing of components that have exhausted their resources, problems arise (mass, dimensions, material of the blades). You are right, for the stable operation of a wind generator with a capacity of 200 MW and higher, the wind speed should be 6-8 m / s.
