A projected 2,250 megawatts (MW) of the wind farms in Texas have mid-level wind speeds over 6.5 meters per second (m/s) at 15 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…
A projected 75 megawatts (MW) of the wind farms in Maui have mid-level wind speeds over 6.5 meters per second (m/s) at 15 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…

Publication: California Energy CommissionYear Published: 1985 Information found here was based on the California Energy Commission report, CEC Wind Atlas, April 1985. Most of the windspeed data was collected at <10m above ground level. The complete CEC Wind Atlas and its underlying reports can be found at the CEC’s main library at 1516 9th St, Sacramento,…
Author: Itron Inc.Publication: California Energy CommissionYear Published: 2004 The California Energy Commission’s (Commission) Public Interest Energy Research (PIER) Renewables program element undertook an urban wind resource assessment project to help the City and County of San Francisco optimize its future investment in distributed wind energy generation.
Author: California Wind Energy CollaborativePublication: California Energy CommissionYear Published: 2014 This project was a preliminary investigation of the wind resource in urban areas. Five buildings in two zones within the city of San Francisco were chosen to assess near surface winds on buildings by wind‐tunnel testing in the Atmospheric Boundary Layer Wind Tunnel at the…
