Zusammenfassung:In recent years the use of the wind resource was increased not only fordiversifying the electricity generation matrix of the countries but also to supply energy for small settlements that are isolated from electricity grids. The objective of this work was to update the Wind Resource Map of the Province of Neuquén, in order to have updated wind cartography that provides the basis for feasibility studies of wind power generation projects. New wind data of excellent quality existing in the area was used.In this study, a diagnostic mass consistent model that allows managing databases was used. The relief and surface roughness were elaborated with remote sensors data. The parameters of the local atmospheric boundary layer were obtained from an atmospheric model outputs. The wind map at 50 meters height and the directional wind characteristics in points of mesh of the centre and southern of the Province of Neuquén was obtained. The quality of fit between the model results and the measurements was evaluated. Wind cartography of adequate quality (ε r = 0.069 and r > 0.93) was achieved, especially in the west sector (ε r < 0.04 and r > 0.98), which are the predominant and most intense wind directions in the region. Excellent windquality location, near good routes and power lines, as, among others, the Barda Negra Plateau and the Vaca Muerta Plateau, in which the annual average wind speed at 50 meters height exceeded 9.0 m/s and at west directions 14.0 m/s. This fact indicates the possibility of installing wind farms. En los últimos años, el aprovechamiento del recurso eólico fue incrementándose no sólo con el objetivo de diversificar la matriz de generación eléctrica de los países, sino también para abastecer de energía a pequeñas poblaciones que se encuentran aisladas de las redes eléctricas. Este trabajo tuvo como objetivo la actualización del Mapa del Potencial Eólico de la Provincia del Neuquén, con la finalidad de disponer de cartografía eólica actualizada que proporcione la base para estudios de factibilidad de proyectos de generación de energía eléctrica a partir del recurso eólico. Se aprovecharon nuevos datos de viento de excelente calidad existentes en la zona. En este estudio se utilizó un modelo tipo diagnóstico que satisface la ecuación de conservación de la masa que permite manejar múltiples bases de datos. Se utilizaron datos de sensores remotos para caracterizar el relieve y la rugosidad superficial. Las características de la capa límite atmosférica
