Analysis of wind energy practice in greenhouses: Case study

Climate change has become an inescapable reality. The world as a whole and Morocco in particular are undergoing irreversible changes due to human action on the environment. With this in mind, Morocco already opted years ago for renewable energies, given the enormous potential available to the country whether it is hydroelectricity, solar energy or wind energy. In this article, the potential of wind power to generate electricity in greenhouses and aid in sustainable agriculture is explored. The data were collected using the Weibull distribution function for the province of Dakhla which was chosen as the experimental station. The results showed that the wind resource can be used to provide some or all of the energy that a greenhouse needs.
