The Estimation of Wind Speed and Wind Power Characteristics in Taiwan

Abstract:

In this paper, the Weibull, Gamma, Lognormal, Rayleigh probability density functions (PDF) were used to statistically analyze the characteristics of wind speed and evaluate the energy based on hourly records from years of 2004 to 2009 at 24 locations in Taiwan. Weibull model shows the best goodness probability density function for estimating behavior of wind characteristic within six years at 7 sites of weather station better than using the Gamma and Rayleigh model. The annual mean wind power density is estimated and compared by different index. The feasibility of probability distributions at different locations were investigated.
