Abstract

We gathered wind data (2009-2013), Digital Elevation Model and Land-use maps to assess Wind Potential. Topographic maps of the area with contour distances of 10 meters, surface roughness and obstacles in the stations were prepared to produce Wind Atlases. Then Wind Potential was calculated and evaluated using parameters including mean Wind Power Density, most probable and maximum energy-carrying wind speed in 40 m AGL and 0. 03 m surface roughness conditions. The comparison of wind properties in studied sites for 0. 03m surface roughness and 40 m AGL conditions showed that mean wind speed is the highest in Gilanqarb and Tazehabad and the lowest in Kangavar and Sarpolzahab respectively. Besides, the investigation of shape reveals that wind speed is more uniform in Tazehabad, Somar and Gilanqarb, while it is less uniform in Kangavar and Ravansar. Most probable wind speed equals to 0 in Ravansar and Kangavar. Moreover, it is very low (less than 1 m/s) in Sapolzahab and Eslamabadqarb, while it is the highest in Tazehabad (5. 72m/s), Gilanqarb (5. 61 m/s), and Somar (4. 91 m/s). Although there is no notable spatial pattern for wind speed in Kermanshah Province due to topographical complexity, sites with high wind energy potential is more frequent in west of this province (such as Tazehabad, Gilanqarb and Somar) compared to the east of it. Thus, the west of this area has more potential to use wind energy in general.
