Textbook in PDF format Wind energy has come a long way since I started working in the field back in 1990. It promises to make a major contribution to the energy transition as the world attempts to move away from the climate-damaging effects of burning fossil fuels. Where to site wind turbines and, just as importantly, where not to site them is a very practical and economic consideration. An accurate prediction of the expected wind resource at a potential wind farm site is, therefore, vital. Several books have been written about wind resource assessment, but I wanted something that was a practical guide with enough underlying theory for students and researchers to understand the measurement techniques that are used and the physical and statistical processes that are being modelled in trying to predict the behaviour of the wind. I also wanted to give some impression of the limitations of the measurements and models and their accuracy. In so doing, I have drawn on my experience of over 30 years of research in the field of wind energy and wind resource and the material that I have taught my students. I have also tried to draw on a wide range of literature to cover the different aspects of wind resource assessment in the many environments where wind turbines and wind farms are sited. I have deliberately stayed away from translating wind resource into energy yield (apart from a couple of very brief forays) as to cover the topic of wind farm yield, including wakes, would warrant a book on its own. Maybe this will be my next book when I have had enough time to recover from this venture. Preface. Introduction. The Atmospheric Boundary Layer. Measurement. Wind Speed Variability and Distributions. Numerical Modelling. Wind Resource Estimation in Complex Terrain, Offshore, and in Urban Areas. Orographic Test Cases. Statistical Methods. Atmospheric Reanalyses and Wind Atlases. Mesoscale Phenomena. Long-term Wind Climate Trends
