Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the
potential of wind energy in the region of Annaba,
located in the Northeast of Algeria. Eleven years
(2007–2017) wind data at10m , from Algerian stations
Meteorological, has been analyzed to obtain wind
energy potential assessment. The two-parameter
Weibull distribution has been used to determine and
analyzed the wind power density and wind energy
potential. Several methods are used to estimate the
Weibull parameters. In this paper, the standard
deviation method is used, given its robustness and
reliability. On the other hand, the vertical
extrapolation of the velocity is used to evaluate the
power density and energy density at heights of 30m ,
and 60m . The results of this study show that this site
is not a suitable location for large scale wind turbines,
but for the use of off-grid electrical applications.
