Where can I find a good table on wind farms?

Question

Showing:

Wind needed to meet demands and then data from a certain period of time, showing wind speed and power produced?

Thanx in advance.

Answer 1

The UK's offshore potential wind resource is equivalent to three times the UK's annual electricity consumption.

Most modern offshore projects have been built with 2 - 3 megawatt machines, but in future this will rise to 3 - 5 MW. Higher wind speeds at sea mean an increased energy production, as energy output is a function of the cube of the wind speed. Each turbine would typically generate enough electricity each year to meet the needs of 2500 households while displacing in the region of 50,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide as it does so.

Good link by the way!
