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.
