A projected 25 megawatts (MW) of the wind farms in Chile have mid-level wind speeds over 6.5 meters per second (m/s) at 20 meters above ground level (agl). These wind farms could double their output by adding H-Type wind turbines like Wind Harvesters under and around existing turbines.
Summary of onshore wind farms and H-type turbine potential
Existing MWs of wind farms in country 2,805
MWs over 6.5m/s at 20m agl (projected) 25
% of wind farms over 6.5m/s at 20m agl 8.9%
This data came from thewindpower.net and UL’s Windnavigator.
