Assessment of wind energy potential of Bauchi in North-East, Nigeria

Assessment of wind energy potential of Bauchi in North-East, Nigeria

Twenty year (1995-2014) monthly mean wind speed and monthly mean wind direction data of Bauchi location were obtained from the Nigeria Meteorological Agency (NIMET) Lagos for the purpose of this study. The data was measured at 3 m height. In order to evaluate wind characteristics, statistical models...

description Twenty year (1995-2014) monthly mean wind speed and monthly mean wind direction data of Bauchi location were obtained from the Nigeria Meteorological Agency (NIMET) Lagos for the purpose of this study. The data was measured at 3 m height. In order to evaluate wind characteristics, statistical models such as Weibull and Rayleigh distribution were employed in the assessment of wind energy potential. It was observed that Weibull distribution suited the wind speed data more than Rayleigh. Wind rose plot of the monthly wind direction was plotted to determine the best possible direction to mount wind turbine in Bauchi station. Wind characteristics obtained at 3 m height were extrapolated for higher altitudes.
