Energy Efficiency Evaluation of Wind Energy Based on Energy Reports

Abstract:

Harnessing wind energy for power generation involves first achieving a preliminary study to understand the wind characteristics for the chosen location. In this way, the results are useful for understanding performace of an project that is connected with wind energy. The purpose of this article is to determine global estimates and different energy reports (ER). This is necessary because we do not always have a lots of meteorological datas. For the determination of these reports (ER) it used different kinds of energies calculated for a period of six years, hourly, daily and monthly data. Therfor, it was calculated the energy monthly, seasonally and annually report between monthly energy calculated with daily wind date and monthly energy calculated with instantaneous wind date (R _{m, Z/I}); energy monthly, seasonally and annually report between monthly energy calculated with monthly wind date and monthly energy calculated with instantaneous wind date (R _{m, L/I}); energy monthly, seasonally and annually report between monthly energy calculated with instantaneous wind date and monthly energy Betz (R _{m, I/B}). All these reports were determined for a certain family of wind turbines used for a functional home using wind and solar energy. From the obtained results that are quite significant differences between seasonal and annual energy reports values determined with different types of energy.
